lyrics
Adrift at the sea of a city -
Built by the flesh and blood.
In the striven prowl,
To be cheek by jowl -
with a friend against the flood.
Left in the deep blue depths,
From its clumsy steps,
Weeps our human spirit.
Up top from where we fell -
Courage tries to yell,
But we’re too low to hear it.
It’s cause nothing ever stays the same,
For time’s like water!
He’s like a stream bent to the game,
We revel in for something broader!
It’s cause we’re too vain for shame,
Aflame with one another, oh-woah!
Life is like a river,
For time’s like water!
Life ain’t no forgiver,
For time’s like water…
From the spring in the soul,
We try to ease control;
Each chain clings to the other.
So the bright daylight’s day -
You learn to obey,
While its rays watch what you utter.
From the cry in the heart, you draw an art -
Of being smart ‘bout what you tell us.
But you grow numb,
Forever under the thumb -
Of a current’s ache you dwell, cause -
Yeah, nothing ever stays the same,
For time’s like water!
He’s like a stream bent to the game,
We revel in for something broader!
It’s cause we’re too vain for shame,
Aflame with one another, oh-woah!
Life is like a river,
For time’s like water!
Life ain’t no forgiver,
For time’s like water, oh!
Time is like a stream,
While life is like our river.
So time shan’t bring a key -
To how to feel less bitter…
That all stands indifferent to a change,
That you already know what it’s like alone…
That youth was always an unfair exchange,
Use bits of cheer to defy the unknown…
When you make home within a world so strange, -
Everlasting waves wash away strength you hone, oh!
For you know, life is like a river,
For time’s like water!
Life ain’t no forgiver,
For time’s like water!
Oh, life is like a river-
Life is not a giver-
No, life does not glow dimmer-
Strife can always hither-
For time’s like water, ah-oh!
For time’s like water, water…
Hmm, hmm, hmm…
Hmm, hmm, hmm…
Mm…

Hello ❤️ I’m Margarita! I’m a solo rock artist from SoCal 🌴
I fully write, compose/produce my own music + am a
binaural/spatial audio mixer!
My music ranges from old-school rock to metal which I blend with a variety of different elements such as orchestral, folk and electronic. Sometimes, I take a detour into genres like dark ambient and soundscapes 😎

The perfect blend of naive enthusiasm and unfiltered rock 'n' roll danger, leading to an explosive, raw sound. Volcanic, pure, and crushing. Bandcamp New & Notable May 30, 2017
