"Burn In The Flood" lyrics
I feel that I'm going round in circles
Trying to navigate the progress that I've made
And it seems I've made a map but lost my compass
Found my sight but lost my focus
The never-ending cycle starts again
Again and again and again
Am I destined to repeat
Every fault and every fracture that lie beneath my feet?
And I'm questioning every single choice that I've made
I guess you can't fight the shadows when you're stuck in the shade
To think that I thought we were the same
The same cliché stuck on different pages
You live your life, cascading through fire
Let this rain crash down and wash all over me
Let it soak into my bones, just let it take a hold of me
There's a fire in your eyes, tells me I am not enough
So hand in hand we go, my friend, to burn in the flood
Yeah, we'll burn in the flood
Blank hollow stare, at this house we called our home
In the middle of this ghost town is where I find my vacant soul
I forget when I was happy, now my outlook feels so bleak
I spend my days lost in a coma and spend my nights just chasing sleep
Is this all that's left?
Screaming out my chest
I thought I'd figured you out, but you were just like the rest
If this is love then we should cherish it, not bury it
Is this all that's left
Is there no other way out of this mess?
I can't believe, it's come to this
A sunken ship steady shrouded in bitterness
Let this rain crash down and wash all over me
Let it soak into my bones, just let it take a hold of me
There's a fire in your eyes, tells me I am not enough
So hand in hand we go, my friend, to burn in the flood
We will burn, we will burn in the, in the flood
So douse me in kerosene, my decision is finite
We will burn, we will burn in the, in the flood
The embers will rot
Claim waste to our family tree
And though the withered roots still grow deep
The soil is lifeless
Hollowed hearts clenched tight in history
To a family drowned deep in misery
Our foundations have faulted
And branches break under the weight
Of a bond made from blood
Hand in hand we roam, my friend
Destined to burn in the flood
Let's get it
Yeah
We will burn in the flood
Trying to navigate the progress that I've made
And it seems I've made a map but lost my compass
Found my sight but lost my focus
The never-ending cycle starts again
Again and again and again
Am I destined to repeat
Every fault and every fracture that lie beneath my feet?
And I'm questioning every single choice that I've made
I guess you can't fight the shadows when you're stuck in the shade
To think that I thought we were the same
The same cliché stuck on different pages
You live your life, cascading through fire
Let this rain crash down and wash all over me
Let it soak into my bones, just let it take a hold of me
There's a fire in your eyes, tells me I am not enough
So hand in hand we go, my friend, to burn in the flood
Yeah, we'll burn in the flood
Blank hollow stare, at this house we called our home
In the middle of this ghost town is where I find my vacant soul
I forget when I was happy, now my outlook feels so bleak
I spend my days lost in a coma and spend my nights just chasing sleep
Is this all that's left?
Screaming out my chest
I thought I'd figured you out, but you were just like the rest
If this is love then we should cherish it, not bury it
Is this all that's left
Is there no other way out of this mess?
I can't believe, it's come to this
A sunken ship steady shrouded in bitterness
Let this rain crash down and wash all over me
Let it soak into my bones, just let it take a hold of me
There's a fire in your eyes, tells me I am not enough
So hand in hand we go, my friend, to burn in the flood
We will burn, we will burn in the, in the flood
So douse me in kerosene, my decision is finite
We will burn, we will burn in the, in the flood
The embers will rot
Claim waste to our family tree
And though the withered roots still grow deep
The soil is lifeless
Hollowed hearts clenched tight in history
To a family drowned deep in misery
Our foundations have faulted
And branches break under the weight
Of a bond made from blood
Hand in hand we roam, my friend
Destined to burn in the flood
Let's get it
Yeah
We will burn in the flood
