Walk on Water
SAL3M Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I guess the daily life kept me busy for a little while, a little bit too long
Don't ever dare to tell me we could walk on water
When the soul's heavy and grey, just like any of the stones
Can't you feel me gently roll down on the bed of the river?
Lost under the bridges, only going with the flow
Who will bring me back to reason when this world seems lost?
Oh, what should I hope for?
Words, ghosts of what have been (Can't you read on my hands)
Faith, smothered under the skin
Lies of love, flirting with the shame
Or flesh and bones going down the drain?
"I'll forget" isn't part of all the pretty fantasies of my lexical
But I guess the daily life kept me busy for a little while, a little bit too long
Don't ever dare to tell me I could walk on water
When the soul's heavy and grey, just like any of the stones
Can't you feel me gently roll down on the bed of the river?
Lost under the bridges, only going with the flow
Tell me, what should I fear if living is enough?
Who will bring me back to reason when this world seems lost?
Oh, what should I hope for?
Oh, what should I hope for?
In SAL3M's song Walk on Water, the artist explores the theme of disillusionment and acceptance of reality. The lyrics reveal a sense of weariness towards the overly optimistic and idealistic attitudes that surround us. The phrase "I'll forget" is repeated throughout the song, emphasizing the idea of wanting to move on from these unrealistic expectations. The line "Don't ever dare to tell me we could walk on water" is a powerful declaration of rejecting the idea that we can achieve the impossible.
The lyrics also convey a sense of resignation and surrender to the uncontrollable forces of life, as seen in the lines "Can't you feel me gently roll down on the bed of the river? Lost under the bridges, only going with the flow." Here, the river serves as a metaphor for life, with the bridges symbolizing the obstacles and challenges we face. The artist acknowledges that sometimes we just have to go with the flow and accept our circumstances.
Overall, SAL3M's Walk on Water is a powerful and introspective piece that encourages the listener to face reality and find meaning in the present rather than hoping for the impossible.
