Swimming In the Flood

My eyes
Have once again
Been proven wrong
Your clouds
Your blanket and
My pity song
Hovering on your front lawn
Carry on until it’s gone

What can I do?
The river’s overrun
We’re swimming in a flood, you know?
I thought I felt your touch
But the water’s rising up

Then I lie naked in a rampage
In the flesh, face to face
With the onset
I forget everything
That’s ever made me
Rise again, now slowly
Leave my memory

What can I do?
The river’s overrun
We’re swimming in a flood, you know?
I thought I felt your touch
But the water’s rising up
Now allmy lovers raise their cups

What can I do?
The river’s overrun
We’re swimming in a flood, you know?
I thought I felt your touch
But the water’s rising up
Now all my lovers raise their cups
