Discover the story of the song > Dark Green Water – Great Grandpa

The singer is talking about how everything eventually fades away, just like the dark green water in the lake. They made mistakes that caused them pain, but they won't let that stop them from finding joy and forgiveness. They learned from their father that perfection doesn't bring happiness and that life doesn't always have a clear ending. They also see their mother's suffering and want to hold onto a place where everything fades away, looking for forgiveness and understanding.
