Water Rising

Is this here the moment, is this for the day?

Lay it on the table, we're done, walk away

I can see the words

They're clinging to your tongue

Who's gon' say it first

Our world's no longer home

Feel a tug in my chest

No one said it would be easy saying goodbye

When you still know me best

So I just can't let you see me cry

Feel the water rising

I close my eyes and

Hold it back, better hold it down

Or the dam's gonna hit the ground

Oh, feel the water rising

I close my eyes and

Hold it back, better hold it down

Or the dam's gonna hit the ground

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Can't believe the time it took to realize

You're the cloud that's darkened my hell, seeing skies

I used to be patient, I used to be kind

Now I'm just so empty, trying my best to fight

How I was here before, when I had that naive faith in you, my friend

Now it's so past secure, I can't let you see me weak again

Feel the water rising

I close my eyes and

Hold it back, better hold it down

Or the dam's gonna hit the ground

Oh, feel the water rising

I close my eyes and

Hold it back, better hold it down

Or the dam's gonna hit the ground

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

You cut my wings so I can't fly

You saw my pain but walked on by

Until that last light in me died

Had me wishing on stars

You pulled my strings to get your way

But in the end pushed me away

So now we live in yesterday

Cause it all went too far

Feel the water rising

I close my eyes and

Hold it back, better hold it down

Or the dam's gonna hit the ground

Oh, feel the water rising

I close my eyes and

Hold it back, better hold it down

Or the dam's gonna hit the ground

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh
