Lyrics Katie Melua

Katie Melua

The Flood

Broken people get recycled

And I hope that I will.

Sometimes we're thrown off our pathways

What I thought was my way home

Wasn't the place I know

I'm certain nothing's certain

What we own becomes our prison

My possessions will be gone

Back to where they came from

Blame, no one is to blame

As natural as the rain that falls

Here comes the Flood again

See the rock that you hold onto

Is it gonna save you

When the earth begins to crumble?

Why d'you feel you have to hold on?

Imagine if you let go

Blame, no one is to blame

As natural as the rain that falls

Here comes the Flood again

Wash away the weight that pulls you down

Ride the waves that free you from the dusk?

Don't trust your eyes

Its easy to believe them

Know in your heart

That you can leave your prison

Don't trust your mind

It's not always listening

Turn on the lights

And feel the ancient rhythm

Don't trust your eyes

Its easy to believe them

Know in your heart

That you can leave your prison

Blame, no one is to blame

As natural as the rain that falls

Here comes the Flood again
