Album: The Earthquake Machine (2005)

Shapeless Like Water

There's a lake, deeply calmed
no one's around but a lonely man
a boat in he water, flowing
no movement at all, and suddenly
throws a rock against the water.

And we flow, flow like water
and we strife, against destiny

There's a lake, deeply calmed
no one's around but a lonely man
a boat in he water, flowing
no movement at all, and suddenly
throws a rock against the water.

And we flow, flow like water
and we strife, against destiny

Master and apprentice meet for some tea
pouring wisdom into a cup
but the cup is already filled with thoughts
empty your mind if you want more tea
empty your cup if you want to learn

as direct as simple, even the blind can see
the truth is revealed, with a mirror and tea

The water can flow, the water can crash
be like water and walk on [x2]

There's a lake, deeply calmed
no one's around but a lonely man

Expand when the contracts, contract when he expands,
be shapeless, like water, like a bamboo cane
bearing the snow and bearing the rain
bearing the rain

[Bruce Lee speech]

The water can flow, the water can crash
be like water and walk on [x4]
