Flood
All I knew and all I believed
Are crumbling images
That no longer comfort me
I scramble to reach higher ground
Some order and sanity
Or something to comfort me
So, I take what is mine, and hold what is mine
Suffocate what is mine, and bury what's mine
Soon the water will come
And claim what is mine
I must leave it behind
And climb to a new place now
This ground is not the rock I thought it to be
Thought I was high
Thought I was free
I thought I was there
Divine destiny
I was wrong
This changes everything
So, I take what is mine, and hold what is mine
Suffocate what is mine, and bury what's mine
Soon the water will come
And claim what is mine
I must leave it behind
And climb to a new place now
The water is rising up on me
Said, the water is rising up on me
Thought the sun would come deliver me
But the truth has come to punish me instead
The ground is breaking down right under me
Cleanse and purge me
In the water
Are crumbling images
That no longer comfort me
I scramble to reach higher ground
Some order and sanity
Or something to comfort me
So, I take what is mine, and hold what is mine
Suffocate what is mine, and bury what's mine
Soon the water will come
And claim what is mine
I must leave it behind
And climb to a new place now
This ground is not the rock I thought it to be
Thought I was high
Thought I was free
I thought I was there
Divine destiny
I was wrong
This changes everything
So, I take what is mine, and hold what is mine
Suffocate what is mine, and bury what's mine
Soon the water will come
And claim what is mine
I must leave it behind
And climb to a new place now
The water is rising up on me
Said, the water is rising up on me
Thought the sun would come deliver me
But the truth has come to punish me instead
The ground is breaking down right under me
Cleanse and purge me
In the water
