“Water Weight” is a song that deals with the death of an elderly family member. In some ways a slow and gradual death can be more painful than a sudden or unexpected one.

[Verse 1]
Nauseate
I'm spinning circles to reimagine you're still with me
It doesn't help much that I'm stuck guilty and afraid
Expecting too much
But lacking the guts to say what you needed me to say
I got caught up
You wished me good luck
I'll see you when I reach my grave
[Chorus]

I threw away a lot of time chasing what I despise
I'm searching for closure in your life

I'm feeling hostage in conversation
It's not the same
Memories replayed can't replace you six feet underneath
[Chorus]
I took for granted all the times you set yourself aside
I threw away a lot of time chasing what I despise
I'm searching for closure in your life
But getting nowhere
I took for granted all the times you set yourself aside
I threw away a lot of time chasing what I despise
I'm searching for closure in your life
I bury everything inside
[Chorus]
I took for granted all the times you set yourself aside
I threw away a lot of time chasing what I despise
I took for granted all the times you set yourself aside
I threw away a lot of time chasing what I despise
I'm searching for closure in your life
But getting nowhere
I took for granted all the times you set yourself aside
I threw away a lot of time chasing what I despise
I'm searching for closure in your life
I bury everything
