However, water is what is keeping us from discovery, it is the barrier between us and god, us and nirvana, us and serenity. Water is pure, it is the most essential part of life for all creatures. The water part of the song is the key to everything in it. Life is about discovering who you are, and discoveries are made by inquiry. The way I interpret this song, is when you are not questioning, you are "letting the days go by." If you don't continiously question existance, you are not doing your job as a human being. I will say right now, that I have a completly different view than the rest of you, due to that experience. He showed me the video for this song (he owned the DVD) to help explain some things. The first time I really listened closely to this song I was on acid, and kept asking my RA about existance, and whether or not people actually exist. Once in a lifetime, let the water hold me down Same as it ever was, same as it ever was (letting the days go by) Here a twister comes, here comes a twister Same as it ever was, the same as it ever was Time isn't holding up, time isn't after us Same as it ever was and look where my hand was You may ask yourself, "Where does that highway go to?"Īnd you may ask yourself, "Am I right? Am I wrong?"Īnd you may say to yourself, "My God, what have I done?" You may ask yourself, "What is that beautiful house?" Under the rocks and stones, there is water underground Into the blue again, into the silent water Remove the water at the bottom of the ocean There is water at the bottom of the ocean Once in a lifetime, water flowing undergroundĪnd you may ask yourself, "How do I work this?"Īnd you may ask yourself, "Where is that large automobile?"Īnd you may tell yourself, "This is not my beautiful house"Īnd you may tell yourself, "This is not my beautiful wife" Into the blue again after the money's gone Letting the days go by, water flowing underground Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down And you may find yourself living in a shotgun shackĪnd you may find yourself in another part of the worldĪnd you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobileĪnd you may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful wifeĪnd you may ask yourself, "Well, how did I get here?"
