The Flood |
By 2 pm the rain is gone |
Clear and cold above |
Water slowly fills the shadows on the lawn |
And never makes a sound |
Leave it all behind you and head for higher ground |
All these years |
Of commitments and careers |
And we’re all up to our ears in fear and doubt |
And water flowing |
Down and out |
Down and out |
We all try |
To drown it out |
Drown it out |
And stay dry |
We all try |
Quietly the valley fills |
With nothing but a sigh |
They shake their heads from high up on the hill |
Where everything is dry |
No need to build a boat under sympathetic skies |
So we fight |
To be warm and watertight |
It’s not the sunshine blinding us |
It’s just the fear of finding that we’re |
And maybe there’s still time |
Maybe we should find a tree to climb |
But it’s easy not to be afraid |
We simply close our eyes |
And watch the water rise |
