Levee

Feel the rain

Feel the rain

It's cold, cloudy, windy, and wet

I see the sun, inside my head

It's warm there, and I need the warmth

More than I ever have

Do my eyes deceive me?

Totally alone and yet surrounded

"What is the plan, and what can I do?"

To stop the rain from coming?

It touches everything I love

The rain touches everything I love

Until it's all washed away

And when that mean old levee

Finally cracks and breaks

You better learn to walk on water

Or fly with broken wings

It's cold, cloudy, windy, and wet

The storm just rages inside my head

It knows no end

It just keeps on raining

Senses trigger the brutal stings

Of every possibility and memory

And it just keeps on raining

Down, down, down

It touches everything we love

The rain touches everything we love

Until it's all washed away

And when that mean old levee

Finally cracks and breaks

You better learn to walk on water

Or fly with broken wings

It can only rain for so long

It can only rain for so long

It can only rain for so long

Before it washes us away

It can only rain for so long

It can only rain for so long

It can only rain for so long

Before it washes us away

It can only rain for so long

It can only rain for so long

It can only rain for so long

Before it washes us away

It can only rain for so long

The levee's gonna break before long

And I can only swim for so long

So maybe it's our time to drown
