YOSIE on the meaning behind the song:
„Clear As Water“ is about having difficulties with freely and fully trusting love. Very often to me it seems like we’re hyper focused on trusting a person when for me the bigger challenge is to trust in love. Coming from a background of the more abusive, absent kind of love I had and still have a hard time to trust in my own new definition of it. That I’m strong enough to keep coming back and moving towards my new kind of love. „As clear as water, I love you, but when there’s dirt inside, it can’t come through“ - The past, our narrative, the way we grew up sometimes makes the water muddy, but that doesn’t mean you can't see and trust people, it just takes more time to get close enough to fully see and trust them and yourself. „Clear As Water“ is about that.
lyrics
Coming up from the deep, I can tell that you’re tired
Cold skin, wet sand, we’re at half tide
I’m waiting for a quest, you’re praying for answers
If it’s not what we want it’s gonna run dry
It’s gonna be fine
As clear as water
I love you
I I do
But when there’s dirt inside
I love you
I I do
As clear as water
We can’t c come through
can’t c come through
But when there’s dirt inside
We can’t c come through
can’t c come through
As clear as water
I love you
I I do
But when there’s dirt inside
I love you
I I do
As clear as water
We can’t c come through
can’t c come through
But when there’s dirt inside
We can’t c come through
can’t c come through
Supercut now we’re dancing like oil on the surface
Mirror mirror I see your reflection distorted
Pushing for hell then I’m falling from heaven
We are angels that turned into aliens
You understand me
