Story Behind the Song
This song is one we kicked around for quite some time. The music came first. We wrote the lyrics and cut the vocal track, the same day. The result is a very dark, almost haunting piece of music.
The lyrics are a retrospective look at life,
overcoming depression, and putting the past behind you, like water under the bridge...
Lyrics
It`s getting cold,
I`m feeling old,
I never tried to fit the mold...
I`ve seen the movie,
and heard the song,
seems every road I took was wrong.
I was standin out on top of the ridge
watchin` the water,
flowing under the bridge,
Just lookin` back,
on the life that I`ve lived,
Just like the water,
Water under the Brige
I`m feelin cold,
I`m gettin old,
No silver lining, No pot of gold,
Never listened,
Never learned,
I`m once bitten, twice burned
I was standin out on top of the ridge
watchin` the water,
flowing under the bridge,
Just lookin` back,
on the life that I`ve lived,
Just like the water,
Water under the Brige
