The Flood
I was made of wood But somehow I'm still here I lay in the mud And watched the world disappear But all that I could do Is look for you my only love I was on my own when I saw the clouds grow He had wanted blood But we had none to spill Then the clouds came down Making rain sounds I dug myself a whole And watched the waters grow But all that I could do Was wait for you my only love There was something in the dirt That wriggled with the worms And it burrowed in my skin Just like our sins So I couldn't get away To save you that day And so you fell apart Corroded by the salt And all that I could do Was pray for you my only love Letras de cancionesTo a vengeful god So I lay in the trees And watched new creatures breath Their skin was flushed and red Their eyes soft and wet But no matter what they do They'll hold nothing to you my only love Was this sacrifice enough? And there was something in the dirt That wriggled with the worms And it burrowed in my skin Just like our sins So I couldn't get away To save you that day And though you fall apart You're still all I want my only love My only love I was made of wood But somehow I'm still here I lay in the mud And watched you disappear From Letras Mania
