Story Behind The Song
9/11, Moscow and other cruel attacks on peacefull citizens.
Song Description
This track calls for mercy in our restless times. Sometimes when people achieve everything they want, later they understand that they have lost everything that is really important-friends, people they love?
This idea is expressed in the first verse of the song. The essential metaphor of this song is the eternal theme of love as joy and pain, ?Just like a trapped bird that dies in jail, the only reasons for our love ?. The present-day topic of war is also shown in our song, ?And blood-red flowers, they play in colours which have been sewn on the battle lands...?
The chorus of our song sounds like a pledge for compassion and friendship in our troubled, yet interesting times.

Lyrics
YOU TAKE THE WATERS
(Verse)
Like the eyes of the devil, cold crystal diamonds
That lies in the oceans mysterious deep
They are worth nothing, they're beyond your reach
It's like you?re captured, a fish in a net
(Chorus)
You take the waters
You take the waters
The crystal waters, from His hands
(Verse)
You've found the protection that's a gift from heaven
And isn't it funny? How can it be?
Just like a trapped bird that dies in jail
The only reason is for our love
(Chorus)
You take the waters
You take the waters
The crystal waters, from His hands
(Verse)
And blood-red flowers, they play in colours
Which have been sewn on the battle lands
(Chorus)
You take the waters
You take the waters
The crystal waters, from His hands
