Haken - Aquamedley (Live in Amsterdam 2017) lyrics

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!

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

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)

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

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

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
