Song language: English
The Flood |
| Will you ever look past your self-sufficient illusions |
| The structure’s true foundations rest within you |
| The price we pay for sheer indifference |
| Surrendered self — you’re discount spare parts |
| You give up your rights for your limitations |
| and abandon all hope |
| One step further down the line as the flood begins to rise |
| You’re on your knees faking ambition |
| Now close your eyes and bleed |
| I know there are things from the past that should never be brought back |
| The ghosts of stale ideals and burning bridges |
| In simplified innane depictions of a different world |
| A lie to serve the fold and the forces in them |
| As you give up your rights for your limitations |
| and lay down your arms |
| One step further down the line as the flood begins to rise |
| You’re on your knees faking ambition |
| Now close your eyes |
| In the darkest corner of my mind I see a boy with a crooked smile |
| With a crown made of tinsel and glassbeads on a wire |
| Singin a song out of time |
| Now if you believe I’ll bleed for you… |
| and if I could bleed — so could you |
| Close your eyes and pretend it’ll go away |
| but you know that you’ve got nothing to lose |
