Water Came Down
Rosie Lowe Lyrics

Building bridges, burn them down again
We try to establish relationships but end up breaking them intentionally.

What's left lies on the water's edge
After breaking relationships, we are left with nothing but the remnants of what we have destroyed.

Just floating
The remnants of broken relationships remain lifeless and aimless.

And nothing ever thought we'd write an ending
No one ever realizes that they themselves are writing the ending of their relationships by their own actions.

When we were only on the beginning
It's sad how relationships end even before it can start due to people's mistakes and decision making.

Now, now it burns
The aftermath of failed relationships is heartbreaking and painful to bear.

We'll light a fire, we had it now it's washed away
We try to rekindle the lost relationship but eventually it gets swept away and lost forever.

With bricks and water, we built it but it would not stay
Even with all our efforts and resources, the foundation of the relationship was fragile and weak.

(When the water came down)

Once the water came down
Once the relationship was gone and destroyed, there's no going back.

Get in dripping, wash our hands of what we thought
After the relationship falls apart, we wash our hands off the mess it left behind, feeling free from the commitment that was once holding us down.

Would stand through any flower fight
The relationship was supposed to survive through thick and thin, but it didn't.

Seems as if we're watertight
We thought that we were strong enough to endure any obstacle, but it turns out we were fragile like glass, unable to withstand the test of time.

We'll light a fire, we bent it up before the dawn
We try to revive the relationship before it's too late, taking desperate measures to recreate what was gone, yet ultimately failing.

With gold and silver were capping, now the curse was gone
We try to make the fallen relationship grander than it was by adding more luxury to it, hoping it would fix what was damaged, yet it remained broken and cursed.

Don't you rush it, take your time
We need to remember to take time with our relationships, building them slowly but surely, instead of hurrying into connection that ultimately would lead to destruction.

If it's true love, you've got the rest of life
True love is worth waiting for, as it's meant to last a lifetime; rushing into something before ensuring it's true love would inevitably lead to heartache and pain.
