WATER
Wave Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Quencher of thirst
You satisfy my soul
Your love never dries up
It always overflows
No matter where I am
Your grace showers down
When it feels like I'm at the end
You give me life again
You're a flowing river
I'm the panting deer
When I feel so far
I know you're always near
In the driest desert
You're a well of water
In my weakest moment
You are always there
Water (You fill me, You fill me)
You fill me (Oh)
Water (You save me, You save me)
You save me (Living Water)
Living Water (I need You, I need You)
I need You (To run in my life)
To run in my life (And saturate my heart)
And saturate my heart again
If you're thirsty let me see you clap your hands
If You got that living water clap your hands
If You Love Him let me see you jump and dance (You are)
Quencher of thirst
(You satisfy my soul)
You satisfy my soul
(Your love never dries up)
Your love never dries up
(It always overflows)
It always overflows
(No matter where, No matter where I am)
No matter where I am
(Your grace showers down)
Your grace showers down
(When it feels like I'm at the end)
When it feels like I'm at the end
(You give me life again)
You give me life again
You're a flowing river
I'm the panting deer
When I feel so far
I know you're always near
In the driest desert
You're a well of water
In my weakest moment
You are always there
Water (You fill me, You fill me)
You fill me (I need You oh)
Water (You save me, You save me)
You save me (There's nothing like that)
Living Water (Oh God I need You)
I need You (To run in my life)
To run in my life (And saturate my heart)
And saturate my heart again
If you're thirsty let me see you clap your hands
If You got that living water clap your hands
If You Love Him let me see you jump and dance
Streams of mercy
Ever-flowing
Love like water
That never ends
Grace like oceans
Everlasting
Love like water
That never ends (you say)
Streams of mercy
Ever-flowing
Love like water
That never ends
Grace like oceans
Everlasting
Love like water
That never ends
Running rivers
Full of healing
Love like water
That never ends
All who are thirsty
Come and be filled
With Love like water
That never ends
(Oh, it never ends, it never ends)
Never ends
Jesus You are my
Water (You fill me, You fill me)
You fill me (oh)
Water (You save me, You save me)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Wave's song Water describe the singer's desire to escape from the pain and emptiness they feel in life. They are asking to be killed, either gently or brutally, and their instructions to their would-be killer reveal their deep sense of despair and hopelessness. The opening lines ask to be "killed softly" and then "sent away with a kiss on the forehead," indicating a desire for a peaceful end. However, the singer also asks to be gutted while they are still conscious, suggesting a need for a release from their emotional pain.


The second verse continues with this theme of wanting to die and escape from the things that are causing them pain. The singer asks to be shot in the head, and suggests that there is no point in trying to fight against life because there is no reward. They then express frustration at how the world is governed by "sons of doctors and dreamy businessmen" who are essentially greedy, selfish children. The singer contrasts this with their own desire to simply exist and live, rather than constantly striving for material wealth.


The final verse expresses a desire to see someone, presumably a lover, in the raw and honest state of being naked. The repeated chorus "kill me only" underscores the singer's intense desire for release from their suffering.

20 to 40 years and the 8 lane interstate that services the coastal ranges, a depth of 60 miles, will be cut in dozens of places for miles, requiring seizing home and shop owners lands to relocate thoee stretches inland safe for another 20 or 30 yrs. It'll cost 100's of billions along the whole coast. Those that say, it's just rich peoples beach house, google map it, there's packed housing from cost 10, 30 50 miles inland along vast stretches of coast. Along with businesses, train lines, harbors, industrial....
CA needs to address these issues NOW, but as we all know, CA dosn't ever address any problems ever. They still allow flood irrigation for farm land for low value silage to feed cows to eat. They still sluice billions of gallongs or rain water to ocean instead of impounding it inland and let it soak in and recharge quifers...
Here's what anyone in that coastal zone needs to do, NOW, to ensure their homes, biz, have some value in 20 or 30 yrs. Yeah for most of you that's your kids problem. Nice. You all need to sit on local offiials, state legislature and gov, every year, huge protest in capital until...

It's just large scale engineering. So was runing dikes up and down the Missisippi River (2 x length of CA coast).

Building out a toe would require running rip rap, non moveable rip rap, meaning blocks the size of a bus until so far underwater wave action won't erode the sands under the leading edge, probably 3 or 4 times heights of bluffs, 300 or 900 feet, about 50 feet thick. When you get to the bluffs, you build a 30 or 45 degree slope from top of bluff down to toe mat. Ideally you incorporate sand, gravel, soils fiber matting, geo textiles to retain fine mateiral until 100,000s of plants you plant can kniet together Including irragation to ensure it thrives but this woudl cost more than the rip rap. So maybe you just do that at select sea access areas and let mother nature fill in voids over the next couple hundred years. .Much of the rip rap mataerial could again be fabricated in a developing country inthe Central Americas.. This would also help enormously with immigration as the 10,000's needed for a generation to work in these fabricators yards will soak up those merely looking for work, and just leave those going to US the onew who want to be citizens. In addition to building the base blocks, there's going to need to be a small mountain range somewhere between Panama and N. CA that can be blown up and hauled off for the fill between and over rip rap, and 1,000's of miles of ocean bottom to be stripped 20 feet deep by auger dredges chewing up sand and rock.

It would need to supercede environmental impact statements and approvals, and instead document the environment, develop a plan to recreate it, mitigate it, and apply realistic funding to endow the work for a generation.
That was fun, thanks for chance to rant

Every now and again the ocean just let's us know how powerful she is.

Building a home on the oceanfront is like putting a screen door on a submarine.

@hakujin1

nice view, they can afford it & much of CA coast shoreline is elevated hundreds of feet.

@timothywhieldon1971

not really!
