Here Comes the Flood Lyrics

VRS 1
When the night shows
the signals grow on radios
All the strange things
they come and go, as early warnings
PR-HORUS 1
Stranded starfish have no place to hide
still waiting for the swollen Easter tide
There's no point in direction
we can - not even choose a side.
VRS 2
I took the old track
the hollow shoulder, across the waters
On the tall cliffs
they were getting older, sons and daughters
PR-HORUS 2
The jaded underworld was riding high
Waves of steel hurled metal at the sky
and as the nail sunk in the cloud,
the rain was warm and soaked the crowd.
HORUS 1
Lord, here comes the flood
We'll say goodbye to flesh and blood
If again the seas are silent
in a - ny still alive
G#/B# D#sus4/A# G#5 F#6 * Aadd9
It 'll be those who gave their is - land to survive
Drink up, dreamers, you're running dry.
VRS 3
When the flood calls
You have no home, you have no walls
In the thun - der crash
You're a thousand minds, within a flash
PR-HORUS 3
Don't be afraid to cry at what you see
The actors gone, there's only you and me
And if we break before the dawn,
they'll use up what we used to be.
HORUS 2
Lord, here comes the flood
We'll say goodbye to flesh and blood
If again the seas are silent
in a - ny still alive
G#/B# D#sus4/A# G#5 F#6 * Aadd9
It 'll be those who gave their is - land to survive
Drink up, dreamers, you're running dry.
