about

"Wasting Water" invokes the power of water to describe a deteriorating domestic relationship. My songwriting is about tapping into the collective human experience, so this song is both profoundly personal and universal.

lyrics

Here you go again
Talking about the painful
Moments I inflicted
When all I said was silent
Here you go again
Talking about this prison
Confinement of the bedroom
When all the guards are sleeping
Here I go again
Staring in the distance
Shutting down retreating
Never mind forgetting
Here we go again
We follow the same old river
Until the pipe takes over
And we can’t see the end

And I try
I try
But nothing ever came
of the years
I die inside
I’m running out of time
I’m just wasting water
Fall
Fall down the drain

Here you go again
Ego like an eggshell
A feather touch with shatter
The trail of blood that follows
Here I go again
Left the faucet running
Gave you what you wanted
One foot out the door
Here I go again
Nobody believes me
They don’t see the monster
I’m overreacting
Here we go again
Living in the floodplain
Pretending not to notice
The river’s on the rise

And I try
I try
But nothing ever came
of the years
I die inside
I’m running out of time
I’m just wasting water
Fall
Fall down the drain
I’m just wasting water

Fall
Fall down the drain
I’m just wasting water
Fall
Fall down the drain
Down the drain
Down the drain
