Term that can be used to describe several situations in short depending on how one applies it to a conversation.
I came up from blood in the water, I know what rock bottom looks like, that’s why I’m never going back.

The ties that bind are stronger when it comes to family than people outside the family (e.g., friends, colleagues, strangers, etc.).
Blood = family (though not necessarily related by blood, such as husband and wife)
Water = non-family
Blood = family (though not necessarily related by blood, such as husband and wife)
Water = non-family
1) "Don't trust anyone outside the family. Blood is thicker than water. Never forget that."
2) A man wakes up from a coma to find all of his family around him. Man: "Where are all my friends? They said they would be there for me no matter what!"
Nurse: "I suppose it's true what they say: blood is thicker than water."
3) "Why did this man's friends show up to his funeral, yet none of his family did?"
"Well... I guess water is thicker than blood!" (the opposite can also be used for dramatic effect)

Original quote: "The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb"
Original meaning: Today it means basically ,"family over everything and everyone". Originally it meant the opposite "the bond you have with true friends is stronger than any family relation.

Original: I will have a stronger bond with the men and women I served with at war than I could have with any family member . The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb.
Today: blah blah family is all we have. Ya know blood is thicker than water.

it's suppose to mean family before anything else; however many people say the phrase and don't really mean it since they would pick their friends over their sister/brother or cousins.
