Album: Breed 77

Floods

As I step outside into the garden
Of a house where hope had died
As I eat of the poison fruit
The poison fruit that I give to the child

Is it your first time?
Just like the last time
Is it the only time you've had?
Into the first line
Might be your last time
This is the only time you'll have

As I turn my back on my reflection
Give me blood to paint my sky
I forget I drown inside my shadow
Pluck the virgin, hear her cry

Is it your first time?
Just like the last time
Is it the only time you've had?
Into the first line
Might be your last time
This is the only time you'll have

Listen for silence - The wind only blows you away
Don't ask for heaven - 'Cause it's all a dream so they say
You've got to wake up - The flood's gonna wash you away

(Away)
Hear her cry

When we are all creeping through
Down me and you
We get wounded out

Is it your first time?
Just like the last time
Is it the only time you've had?
Into the first line
Might be your last time
This is the only time you'll have

Listen for silence - The wind only blows you away
Don't ask for heaven - 'Cause it's all a dream so they say
You've got to wake up - The flood's gonna wash you away
