Written in the Water

Lyrics
I was born by the devil I was left here to die I was held up for ransom under cold summer skies I was told not to love him I was told not to try I was lonely the only 'till he said he'd be mine He will leave me for younger He will leave me to cry Cut them, night, a little deeper Count the days I survived

Yeah It's written in the water Yeah It's everywhere I go Tellin' me that I should leave you like I did two times before

I define if I meant to When you still have had your own Give me one kiss for the road boy I guess it's time I left you alone

I will run to the river I will reach for the well Drown my sorrows for someone In my hope I leave this hell I can't live for forgiveness I can't live with the lie I won't be what you wanted No, I won't be what you like

Yeah It's written in the water Yeah It's everywhere I go Tellin' me that I should leave you like I did two times before

I define if I meant to When you still have had your own Give me one kiss for the road, boy I guess it's time I left you alone

Yeah It's written in the water Yeah It's everywhere I go Tellin' me that I should leave you like I did two times before

I define if I meant to When you still have had your own Give me one kiss for the road, boy I guess it's time I left you alone

Yeah It's written in the water Yeah It's everywhere I go Tellin' me that I should leave you like I did two times before

I define if I meant to When you still have had your own Give me one kiss for the road, boy I guess it's time I left you alone

Analysis
This song was inspired by the warnings Wigmore was getting about her fiancé, and her refusal to act on them. The video was directed by Zachariah de Cairo and stars Wigmore and her husband Jason Butler as an outlaw couple who are caught by a local sheriff and marched to their deaths in a swamp. Later, another video was made for the song as a prequel, showing the duo's crime spree and how they grabbed the cash. This video was labeled the "Live However" version, with the other one called "Die Regardless."
