Waterfall
Released: 2024
Lyrics
And all the times you walked away
I’m always here, I’ll always stay (Always stay)
I see your shadow freezing now
And every time is worse somehow
I carry your bones everywhere
There’s nowhere too far from here (Far from here)
I’m staring at the waterfall
Going down, down, down, down
Down above me
The cold embrace
Of the darkest days
I still see your face
I miss your grace leading the way
Never saw the greenest grass
Heartbreak, fills my chest full of broken glass
I see your shadow leaving now
Wish I wouldn’t sink this low
I carried your bones everywhere
And everywhere’s too far from here (Far from here)
Are you watching this waterfall
Going down, down, down, down
Down above me?
Never saw the greenest grass
The cold embrace (The cold embrace)
Of the darkest days (the darkest days)
I see your face
I miss your grace leading the way
The cold embrace
Of the darkest days
I still see your face
I miss your grace leading the way
About
Waterfall was originally one of those songs that wasn’t originally planned to be a Sinfonia Borealis song. Originally written by Hanssen years beforehand, the original version was more pop-oriented, though still brooding in temperament.
It’s a very personal song. Sometimes, something as simple, yet brutal, as a waterfall is what helps to sort one’s thoughts.
