- Dustin Kensrue performing an incredibly powerful acoustic version of Thrice's "Words in the Water"
Lyrics
Standing knee-deep in cold water, swiftly moving
Somehow I knew I lost something
Waiting waist-deep I saw a book there, in the river
Waiting for me to find it there
I tried to read it, neck deep, treading water
The tide pulled me out to sea
Then with water in my eyes
The words began to rise from their place
They were beautiful and dread
I reached for them and fed on each phrase
They were honey on my lips
Then a bitter twist in my side
I knew they'd lay me in my grave
"Is there no one who could save me? " I cried
Sinking down deep through cold water and heavy silence
Shadows stirring in the gloom
What things lay sleeping down deep in the darkness?
Woke then to find me in my tomb
Then with water in my eyes
The words began to rise from their place
They were beautiful and dread
I reached for them and fed on each phrase
They were honey on my lips
Then a bitter twist in my side
I knew they'd lay me in my grave
"Is there no one who could save me? " I cried
And when I lost all hope to look
Someone took that heavy book from my hands
All it's weight they set aside
After they had satisfied it's demands
I felt white and black reverse
And the lifting of a curse from my heart
Then like one receiving sight
I beheld a brilliant light in the dark - เพลง

This is the greatest musician,singer, songwriter of the century. So severely underrated.
massively underrated.. the raspyness in this guys voice is totally underrated aswell.
@@chadpeacock2064 I have been listening to them since the better days albums, I grew up sneaking out of my house to see them play at chain reaction before they were famous. To hear his voice mature of that time, is nothing less than incredible. Him and thrice are truly a gift.
Yes, the Orange county Hardcore Era phenomenon of 2001sies. Thrice is one of the greatest bands, dustin being a fucking musical GENIUS w God gifted interpretation and expression. Thank you god for gifting us Dustin.
@@MrUrmother22must have been great to grow up with them. I've only just gotten into them and they're my favorite band now. Wish I could've grown up as their sound grew up.
True, the lyrics r godly
you can tell he loves this song and the painful place it came from
song brings tears to my eyes every time... such a song of grace
Man this dude has such a way with words, gifted at expressing feelings and thoughts.
He sings every song so good. So underrated.
One of my favorite songs ever. Thrice deserves more recognition than it gets, no doubt.
Man.... this guy is just so incredible. Been here since the beginning... Thrice & Dustin hit me in the feels consistently.
Unbelievably good playing it live, 😎🤙
The most beautiful song of the last decade imo.
Praise be to JESUS CHRIST OUR REDEEMER!
Jesus Dustin. You seriously have probably the most powerful voice I've ever heard in my entire life. On top of being the greatest lyricist I've ever heard.
They should study you for thousands of years to come in music classes.
He sounds amazing live as well
What a beast.... by far one of my favorite singers. Thanks for posting
Thank you very much for posting... such an amazing singer!
What an incredible performance!
Thank you so much for posting. this is such a great song. I've never seen it played acoustically, and always wondered how it would sound. wow. so amazing! now I'm going to have to learn to play it.
Sou completamente "viciado" nessa música.
Há anos eu ouço todos os dias
Thrice é foda! Pior que vieram pro Brasil e nem fiquei sabendo
Somos dois.
@@Paulista- eu fui! Inesquecível!
Amazing!
I’m Christian, yeah. But I cannot stand worship music. The lyrics, even though they have good meaning and intent to it, they sound boring and lazy, just like the instrumentals. This song on the other hand, you can tell it comes from someone who had lost his/her way in life and is seeking for help. And when you least expected it, God was there. This is the kind of music that I would love to hear in a church, the kind that shamelessly tells me that it’s pretty normal to lose our way in life every now and then, but there’s someone that no matter what you do, will always have your back.
This song has the power to move me, and it makes me feel like a genuine Christian human being.
Well said 🙌🙌
Amen
🙌
So. Damn. Good.
