Watershed Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The way you feel, way down low
It's going to be dark, it's going to be
Cold for now, for a little while...
So be strong...
Oh be strong...
'cos all I can do is sympathize with you, for now
So I'll try my best to tell you
He's strong, oh and he needs you here for long
And to tell you, she's strong
And she needs you here for long...
My... my world, it's a little unsolved
My... my world, it's a little unsolved
Take me through the clouds today
And on and on, 'till I feel warm...
And then from there I'll move along
And find someone, someone I know
Who's smiling and holding me down
Who's smiling and holding me down...
'cos our jewel is gone
And they are safe in his arms
And they looking down on earth
They smiling that smile, we know so well...
But we all seem...
Just a little unsolved
My wold... it's a little unsolved
My wold... it's a little unsolved
My, my wold... it's a little unsolved...
The lyrics of Watershed's song "Unsolved" are about someone who is struggling to empathize with a friend or loved one who is going through a difficult time. The singer acknowledges that it's hard for them to feel the same way as their friend, who is feeling "way down low." They encourage their friend to be strong, even though the situation is dark and cold for now.
The singer admits that they can only sympathize with their friend, not truly empathize, as empathy is "a long, long way from me." They try their best to offer comfort and support, assuring their friend that they are needed and important. The song also touches on the theme of loss and grief, as the singer talks about a jewel that is gone and the idea of loved ones looking down on the earth from a better place.
Overall, the song is a message of hope and perseverance in the face of difficult times. It acknowledges the struggles we all face and the fact that sometimes things just feel "unsolved," but encourages us to keep pushing through and looking for the people and things that bring us warmth and comfort.

It's going to be hard for me to feel
I may find it difficult to understand and share the emotions you are experiencing
The way you feel, way down low
The intense emotions you are feeling deep within yourself
It's going to be dark, it's going to be
The situation will appear bleak and gloomy
Cold for now, for a little while...
This will be temporary and you will eventually move past it
So be strong...
Have the fortitude to endure and rise above the difficult times
Oh be strong...
Repeat, have the fortitude to endure and rise above the difficult times
'cos all I can do is sympathize with you, for now
At present, my ability is limited to understanding and offering support in sympathy
'cos empathy is a long, long way from me...
In reality, I am not capable of truly experiencing your emotions through empathy
So I'll try my best to tell you
Hence, I will make every effort to convey to you
He's strong, oh and he needs you here for long
Your significant other possesses great strength and requires your continuing presence and support
And to tell you, she's strong
Similarly, I need to reassure you that the woman in your life is also formidable
And she needs you here for long...
And requires your presence and emotional support in the long run
My... my world, it's a little unsolved
My existence feels uncertain and unresolved
Take me through the clouds today
Transition me beyond my current issues
And on and on, 'till I feel warm...
Until I feel a sense of comfort and tranquility
And then from there I'll move along
I'll proceed from that point forward
And find someone, someone I know
Seek the company of a trusted individual
Who's smiling and holding me down
Someone who is content and provides comfort and support
And they are safe in his arms
The loved ones we've lost have found eternal solace
And they looking down on earth
They are aware of what is occurring in our lives
They smiling that smile, we know so well...
And each smile they express is familiar and recognizable
But we all seem...
Nonetheless
Just a little unsolved
We still feel unresolved despite knowing they are safe and unaffected
My wold... it's a little unsolved
My own personal existence still seems enigmatic and indeterminate
My wold... it's a little unsolved
My own personal existence still seems enigmatic and indeterminate
My, my wold... it's a little unsolved...
Once more, my personal existence still feels uncertain and unresolved

Exactly right, that point was missed by so many commentators on this murder. What was Sarah Everard to do when arrested by a serving police officer, displaying a genuine Metropolitan Police warrant card? She did what most law abiding females would do - she obeyed, believing she could trust the police. And she was handcuffed, abducted, raped and murdered by that pervert. There's only one thing more dangerous than a sexual predator - a sexual predator with police powers.
Cressida Dick had to go for multiple reasons. Firstly, Wayne Couzens (known to his colleagues as The Rapist), operated on her watch - what's more, he thrived, and became more depraved and dangerous on her watch. It isn't acceptable that she tried to claim he was simply one rotten apple in a sea of good 'uns - the underlying sexism in the force his vile crimes revealed, told its own sinister story. How many more potential Wayne Couzens are there in police uniform right now?
The Met was clearly a deeply misogynistic organisation under her watch (this video didn't even mention Couzens' revolting macho text/sex chats with colleagues about female officers, and sharing of online porn etc). While Cressida Dick can't be held solely responsible for her officers' inappropriate conduct, there's no evidence she did anything to acknowledge, least of all tackle the serious issue of misogyny in the force.
Equally shocking was Cressida Dick's disastrous mishandling of the demonstration by women against male violence. That such an event should have featured ugly scenes of male police officers manhandling and handcuffing female protesters - after one had done exactly that to Sarah Everard before raping and murdering her - beggars belief! If Cressida Dick was any kind of leader worthy of the name, she would have firmly instructed her officers to use a kid glove approach, and only take such action as the very last resort should violence erupt.
Those women were not violent. They were angry at the murder of another woman by a serving police officer, and they were bloody well right to be!

@@newleft2254 There's no evidence Wayne Couzens had ever worked directly with the royal family. If he had, you can be sure the royal-obsessed British press would have written reams about it (with photos, if any existed!)
The media made much of the fact Couzens was with the 'Parliamentary and Diplomatic Protection Command' ('PDPC'), whose armed officers guard the Palace of Westminster/Houses of Parliament, the parliamentary estate in the heart of London with the highest security status (comprising the House of Commons, House of Lords, Westminster Hall, St Stephens Chapel and Big Ben).
But in fact Wayne Couzens spent most of his time in a far less prestigious environment, patrolling foreign embassy buildings. 'PDPC' officers have a strong anti terrorism brief, so carrying a firearm is crucial.
Many people were shocked that a man of Couzens' criminal depravity had cleared the various hurdles necessary to join the British police, and found a safe haven within that organisation. More concerning still, are the multiple allegations of sexual crimes against him that were reported to police but never even investigated. The earliest of these sexual allegations was made back in 2002 and was on his record - but despite supposed background checks and vetting, it didn't stop him being accepted as a special constable.
His sexual offending continued once he had become a full time, armed police officer. In 2015 a fellow motorist dialled 911 and reported seeing him driving around Kent naked from the waist down. Kent Police took no further action over the incident.
Three allegations were made against Couzens, just 2 weeks before he abducted and murdered Sarah Everard. It was alleged he exposed himself and masturbated in a McDonalds Restaurant in front of female staff on two occasions on 28th January 2021. And just 72 hours before the 3rd March murder of Sarah Everard, he again exposed himself at a fast food restaurant, and was again reported to police, along with his vehicle registration details.
The correct procedure when such an allegation is made against a serving police officer, is that they are immediately suspended from duties while an investigation is launched. But at the time of his arrest for murder, he had faced such no police investigation for any of those serious alleged incidents. Why not? It strongly suggests a sex offender being protected from consequences/prosecution, because of his police status.
That he'd apparently got away with those crimes (at best had police dragged their heels), is perhaps less surprising once you consider his sinister email and cellphone history. His electronic conversations show he'd found kindred spirits among his law enforcement colleagues. Vile, misogynist hardcore porn and 'jokes' were regularly shared between Couzens and fellow officers. That his nickname among his police peers was 'The Rapist', speaks volumes about him - and them. It was widely known he was attracted to violent pornography. Couzens, with his highly sexualised and contemptuous view of the female sex, was not a fish out of water in the police force - he felt right at home there.
The now former Metropolitan Police Commissioner Cressida Dick, played the Wayne Couzens scandal in an all too predictable way. She claimed he was merely a lone bad apple, a freak, a one-off aberration, who by some utterly random and never to be repeated fluke, found himself not only wearing a police uniform and wielding police powers, but also carrying a powerful firearm while serving the nation's most high security section of the capital city. If only that were true - in reality Couzens' rise up the ranks of a horrible macho organisation was only too understandable!
True, his horrific kidnap, rape and murder of a female member of the public was thankfully a very rare event in the history of the British police. But his hateful, sexualised and predatory view of the female sex was already prevalent among his fellow officers - as those umpteen toxic, text, Whatsapp and email messages prove.
In the wake of the flawed investigation into the racist, 1993 murder of black teen Stephen Lawrence, police were subjected to a major investigation into 'institutionalised racism' in the force. The 1999 MacPherson Report was extensive, and found evidence of multiple police failings in serving its non-white citizens. There have been calls for a similar investigation into institutionalised misogyny in the police, but those calls have been ignored.
Misogyny is not a victimless crime, far from it. Misogyny brutally ends the lives of countless women and girls around the globe, every single year. Yet misogyny is still not legally recognised as a hate crime, and still isn't taken seriously - not even by civilised, democratic societies. Sexism certainly isn't taken anywhere near as seriously as racism rightly is. There simply isn't a cultural appetite to subject the police to scrutiny on this issue, and make it face sanctions for its misogyny. But there should be!
After the 2021 kidnap, rape and murder of a female citizen by a serving police officer, now more than ever police misogyny within the ranks should be acknowledged by police leaders, and subjected to the forensic examination of a public enquiry.
In a country where two females are killed every week at the hands of a man, women and girls need to feel confident they can trust male law enforcement officers. Serving policeman Wayne Couzens' murder of Sarah Everard, the total lack of action by police over multiple reports of his previous sexual offending against women, and the dark internet history between him and his colleagues, confirms they cannot.
Only one thing presents a bigger potential danger to a female, than a male - and that's a male with police powers.
@andrellegoodman5139
A policeman, with the nickname "the rapist"?! All of his colleagues are guilty as well. Horrifically disgusting, and neglectful, for shame.
@carolinemahoney5252
Well said! Couldn't agree more!
@shadetreader
That is exactly what cops are like.
@documentariesbycategory1483
Disturbingly, males with antisocial traits, aggression and violence, as well as those with psychopathic traits are actually specifically attracted to police, security, military roles.
Not my opinion, thereās solid research on this.
It does make sense if one perceives those roles as a āsocially acceptable opportunityā to take a position of dominance, power and control, engage with aggression, or even violence. Not only that but, being in a field dominated by men with traditional gender roles reduces the possibility that obvious and fucked up red flags like him being nicknamed āthe rapistā will be taken seriously and reported.
@susanofhullhumberside4753
Even his non-white colleagues? You would never call them out.
@alistairpayne5357
All the same .....Rotherham rochdale, Oxford Telford, Glasgow etc etc ...nothing done , no learning from mistakes . Just the usual from useless public services
@marialovespalmtrees
I love how you go straight into the case and don't waste the first 5 mins with intros and asking everyone to subscribe etc (it's so annoying!). Definitely one of the best crime channels! Thankyou for such well delivered cases.
@monicamay4735
Or that they donāt interrupt their videos to talk about their sponsors.
@harveyreece5585
Greed. However it has probably cost the channel owner 100s of thousands of subscribers. Humans are robots - hear a command, obey!
@molliwilson5639
Well said. I agree with you
