Aquamedley - Live in Amsterdam 2017
[The Point of No Return]
Until the ice has melted
Into tears of pain or fear
Pure anticipation
In hope we are, patient for a cry
A child is born tonight
And love has come to life
Living in this nightmare
Falling further to his knees
The purest disappointment
In hope we're not patient for a lie
A child was born tonight
At the point of no return
We can't raise this child
This precious circus freak
With fins for arms
And a tail where legs would be
There's no turning back
Our decision is made
If we don't let her go
We cannot love her as our own
The water is thicker than blood
And we can't look her in the eyes
Release her to the stream!
[Streams]
Oooh, now that I am free
Swimming with the many fishes of the stream
Yeah, and I am welcome here
We all just connected swimmingly
Streams of life digress
Like water running through my veins
Running through my veins
Running through my veins
[Aquarium]
Fortune and fame she's the freak of the day
Only you made a name for yourself
Then fell in lov after all that he's done
To her plan that is destined to fail
Oooh, they hit it right off
(She freaked you out)
[Eternal Rain]
Dry land, don't cry on me
How could I know?
The sky forgives no one
And the worst has yet to come
Soaking right down to the bone
In your eternal rain
I give in to temptation
She was never meant to be saved
Dry land, don't cry on me
How could I know?
The sky forgives no one
And the worst has yet to come
[Drowning in the Flood]
Human corpses floating side by side
Washed up with the distant moonlit tide
Only she can save our sorry souls
Priceless freedom coming at a heavy cost
But I can't turn back hands of time
She knows her purpose is to die
I've sacrificed all that I love and care about
I'm drowning in the flood
I'm sorry, I'm sad with a sense of regret
It fills my lungs
It's not too late to suffocate
The price I will pay for what I've done
We are trapped under the sea
But we made this ocean in one day
She takes my breath away
We were drowning, she was free
Now she's gone forever
I will pay, she takes my breath away
Will we live to tell the tale?
Is it worth the price we paid?
Are we praying for the sun
Or are we drowning in the flood?
Will we live to tell the tale?
Is it worth the price we paid?
Are we praying for the sun
Or are we drowning in the flood?
Drowning in the flood
[Celestial Elixir]
The calm that comes after the storm
The tide that never reaches the shore
So heavenly your remedy
When love prevails
Swallowing the blood of enemies
She may never return
But I can wait forever
If we cannot make amends
I'll chase your rainbow till the end
Streams of light unite with water
Running through our veins
Streams of blood like liquid
Love is running through our veins
