Like Water
Embracing Liberation: Sweet Juanita's Resonant Melody
Lyrics
In my summer of discontent
In a period of dissatisfaction during my summer
Time came and time just went
Time passed without notice
You ran away so it seemed
You appeared to run away
Just like a broken dream
Similar to a shattered dream
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Expressing emotional distress with vocalizations
Falling down all over me
Falling down, experiencing difficulties
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Continued emotional distress
It's like water drowning me
Feeling overwhelmed, like being submerged in water
All my worries never seem to fade
My worries persist and do not diminish
Things we had, the plans we made
Reflecting on lost possessions and unrealized plans
Guess I could just fly away
Contemplating escaping to avoid facing another day
Not have to face another day
Escaping as a potential solution
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Repetition of emotional distress
Falling down all over me
Continuing to experience difficulties
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Repeating the feeling of being submerged in water
It's like water drowning me
Intensifying the sense of being overwhelmed
We can make it if we try
Expressing hope in overcoming challenges through effort
And understand the reasons why
Emphasizing the importance of understanding reasons
Why
Repetition for emphasis
As the feelings on my heavy mind
Describing emotional weight on the mind
Finding reasons to be alive
Searching for reasons to continue living
Through the dust I still can see
Despite challenges, maintaining perspective
We all need to feel free
Emphasizing the universal need for freedom
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Repetition of emotional distress
It's like water drowning me
Reiterating the feeling of being overwhelmed like water
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Repeating the drowning metaphor
It's like water now
Reinforcing the water metaphor
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Repetition for emphasis
It's like water drowning me
Re-emphasizing the drowning metaphor
We all need to feel free
Highlighting the universal need for freedom
