This song is pulsing with energy! There is a tension and a build up to the crescendo keeps me on the edge of my seat. The current iteration of the band just bashes you over the head with LOUDNESS. This version breathes, flows, and expands. The current versions of DDTW explode and it's over. Its like drinking from a fire hose. This version is like sipping a fine wine.
Jesus answered, ‘Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.’”
Who's the narrator in this song? Satan. It's his diatribe of begging us not to believe on Jesus Christ. Believing on Him is "drinking" in His water. The blood? Without His shed blood atoning for our sins than His message is of no effect. Notice that the words used in the song are of Scriptural origins. Just about all of them. Even ones that just sound as figure of speech. "Your horse is leaving"? References Christ's second coming. Btw, natives didn't even have any horses until we arrived. The boat? Every Biblical scholar will agree that Noah's ark was a "type" or "shaddow" representing Jesus Christ, saving man from judgement. Jesus even said; "As it was in the days of Noah.... so shall it be when I return." The beginning of the song references the beginning of the Bible. In Genesis, Adam and Eve's eyes were opened to their nakedness (primarilly their spiritual nakedness). They could "now see". They "hid themselves".They were "banished" from the garden. They forfeited their dominion over the earth and it was given over to Satan ("given to me"). "Lay your arms down". Praising and worshipping God with raised arms is spiritual warfare, in both the Old and New Testaments, and today. Satan wants to make our world his own "heaven and home". It's all he has, however brief it will be in regard to eternity. "His "wings". The "fire". "Poor souls". "Fool, you're blind". Jesus said that unbelievers are blind, and lead others that are blind, and both fall into the pit. Jesus told a man, who wanted to bury his father, with "let the dead (spiritually dead) bury the dead" (the physically dead). "Your father's spirit". Can it be any more clear who the Father is?
Now as I rest my feet by this fire Those hands once warmed here I have retired them I can breathe my own air I can sleep more soundly Upon these poor souls I'll build heaven and call it home 'Cause you're all dead now I live with my justice I live with my greedy need I live with no mercy I live with my frenzied feeding I live with my hatred I live with my jealousy I live with the notion That I don't need anyone but me Don't drink the water There's blood in the water
In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
Come out come out No use in hiding Come now come now Can you not see? There's no place here What were you expecting Not room for both Just room for me So you will lay your arms down Yes I will call this home Away away You have been banished Your land is gone And given me And here I will spread my wings Yes I will call this home What's this you say? You feel a right to remain? Then stay and I will bury you What's that you say Your father's spirit still lives in this place I will silence you Here's the hitch Your horse is leaving Don't miss your boat It's leaving now And as you go I will spread my wings Yes I will call this home I have no time to justify to you Fool, you're blind, move aside for me All I can say to you my new neighbor Is you must move on or I will bury you Now as I rest my feet by this fire Those hands once warmed here I have retired them I can breathe my own air I can sleep more soundly Upon these poor souls I'll build heaven and call it home Cause you're all dead now I live with my justice I live with my greedy need I live with no mercy I live with my frenzied feeding I live with my hatred I live with my jealousy I live with the notion That I don't need anyone but me Don't drink the water Don't drink the water There's blood in the water Don't drink the water
Even though most of the sites that provide these lyrics are the same as yours, they omit "and God" preceding "I live with the notion..." Dave omits it here as well, but not while at Central Park, as well at other performances. Interesting, as the song's true meaning describes a diatribe by Satan. The surface narrative implies its about indigenous people and those who conquered them. Dave himself said it was about Satan but later claimed it's about indigenous people. Dave is all about cozying up to the woke crowd.
Man...this song just makes everydays struggles so pointless.....especially at minute 4 45 to 4 50.....this guy's got voice...and then i notice the braless chick floting around the crowd...hahaha...everyone on this event seem to be on a very good acid trip.including the musicians..hahaha...i wish i coulve been there...
"Drinking" here represents believing or adhering to a teaching or a theory or a doctrine. As in two scientists commenting on a third, "Yeah, he's drinking in Dr. Doe's nonsense." The "water" is the gospel message of Jesus Christ/The Word of God. The blood? Who's blood? Come on, the blood of Jesus Christ, the lack of which would nullify and invalidate the Gospel's message and relevance. It all starts with His blood atonement, without which, loving, forgiving, and yes, even beliveng wouldnt be worth a stitch. Notice that even the very first two lyrics of the song reference Adam and Eve being banished from Eden. Straight from the first few chapters of Genesis. Their eyes were "opened" (to their shame) and could now "see". They then "hid themselves." Praising and worshipping among Christians with arms raised is often considered "spiritual warfare", as it was even in Old Testament days. "Lay your 'arms' down " Dont wors- hip Him. "You are "blind fools." Christ called unbelievers blind and said they lead each other into the pit. The references to "wings, fire, boat (Noah's ark was a type or shaddow of the coming Messiah who woukd save the righteous from judgement). Satan thinks this world will be his forever home/heaven but it is indeed currently under his dominion, albeit briefly in comparison to eternity. Finally, we all know who "your Father" is referring to. One last note. Satan is "bossy" during this tirade but later confesses his guilt and ends begging and pleading with us not to trust in God.
I love at 1:29 how he looks over to the monitor man and and gives the "turn me up" signal... reminds me of the old days....

GREAT GREAT PERFORMANCE!!! DAVE MATTHEW'S... A TRUE STAR...
Now as I rest my feet by this fire
Those hands once warmed here
I have retired them
I can breathe my own air
I can sleep more soundly
Upon these poor souls
I'll build heaven and call it home
'Cause you're all dead now
I live with my justice
I live with my greedy need
I live with no mercy
I live with my frenzied feeding
I live with my hatred
I live with my jealousy
I live with the notion
That I don't need anyone but me
Don't drink the water
There's blood in the water
they truly are the hard rock of fame!!!!!!!!!! LOVE how the LORD IS WITH THEM ALWAYS!!!!
Just wow once in a life time performance
One of my alltime favourite songs!
Awesome song, Wonderful High Beams in the crowd!!
Under the sun!!... and this are so fucking powerfull!!

Gooooo Daaaaavvveeeeee!!!!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Come out come out
No use in hiding
Come now come now
Can you not see?
There's no place here
What were you expecting
Not room for both
Just room for me
So you will lay your arms down
Yes I will call this home
Away away
You have been banished
Your land is gone
And given me
And here I will spread my wings
Yes I will call this home
What's this you say?
You feel a right to remain?
Then stay and I will bury you
What's that you say
Your father's spirit still lives in this place
I will silence you
Here's the hitch
Your horse is leaving
Don't miss your boat
It's leaving now
And as you go I will spread my wings
Yes I will call this home
I have no time to justify to you
Fool, you're blind, move aside for me
All I can say to you my new neighbor
Is you must move on or I will bury you
Now as I rest my feet by this fire
Those hands once warmed here
I have retired them
I can breathe my own air
I can sleep more soundly
Upon these poor souls
I'll build heaven and call it home
Cause you're all dead now
I live with my justice
I live with my greedy need
I live with no mercy
I live with my frenzied feeding
I live with my hatred
I live with my jealousy
I live with the notion
That I don't need anyone but me
Don't drink the water
Don't drink the water
There's blood in the water
Don't drink the water
thanks
