"The House" lyrics

"The House"

Run and tell the others
The clouds look like they're coming this way
There's no need to make a scene of it
Most of it will wash off with rain
I railed against, I failed again
What'd you think I'd do?

I wallow in overflow, I'll wade
Pulled by the undertow, I'll wade

And loneliness
The killer companion on the river is waving
Sand to fill my pockets
Your hands up as you're walking away
We've been here before
I know the story will end someday

I wallow in overflow, I'll wade
Pulled by the undertow, I'll wade

While it floods I'll swear to God
And watch you float away
While it floods I'll swear to God
I'd rather float away

I wallow in overflow, I'll wade
Pulled by the undertow, I'll wade

While it floods I'll swear to God
And watch you float away
While it floods I'll swear to God
I'd rather float away

Float, float, float, floating away...
Float, float, float, floating away...
Float, float, float, floating away...
Float, float, float, floating away...
