I knew love in dripping coffee Flooded streets and rust and rotting I knew love in drunken talking 'Fore the weather changed. And long before the fever dreams The pale-faced machinery For the rain came like artillery Pulled me underneath the flood. And underneath the flood it's quiet All my thoughts are softly dying All the rain, the rain is silent Underneath the flood. Well I was bred in anxious tryst All soft of hand and soft of fist Through sanity so tedious I'm searching in the blood. Well my hatred needs no victim oh My hatred like religion Crucify me while I'm kicking Pull me underneath the flood. And underneath the flood it's quiet All my thoughts are softly dying Oh the rain, the rain is rising Underneath the flood. And underneath the flood I'm drowning Have no friends to gather 'round me Oh my god my greed has found me Underneath the flood. And underneath the flood My tears are turning to the water Rusted coins and crumpled dollars I sink underneath, sink underneath. I sit here in torrential silence Coffee keeping up my eyelids Thoughts of you all turn to violence Trying to find love But I hate how you believed in me You believed with such cold objectivity So tired I relinquished everything Fell underneath the flood. And underneath the flood it's quiet All my thoughts are softly dying All the rain, the rain is silent Underneath the flood. |
