Tool – Flood lyrics

Album: Undertow

All I knewww
and all I belieeeeved
are crumbling images
that no longer comfort me.
I scramble tooo
reach higher grounnnd,
some order and sanity,
or something to comfort me.
I take what is mine,
and hold what is mine,
suffocate what is mine,
and bury what's mine.
Soon the water will come
and claim what is mine.
I must leave it behind,
and climb to a new place now.

This ground is not the rock Iii,
thought it to beeeeeeee.

Thought I was high,
thought i was free.
I thought I was there,
divine destiny.

-I was wrong. This changes everything.-

We're running away. We're running away. Now. We're running away. We're running away. Now. We're running away. We're running away. Now. We're running away. We're running away.

I take what is mine,
and hold what is mine,
suffocate what is mine,
and bury what's mine.
Soon the water will come
and claim what is mine.
I must leave it behind,
and climb to a new place now.
(The water is rising up on me. 2x)
Thought the sun would come deliver me,
but the truth has come to punish me instead.

Theeeeeee,
ground is breaking down right under me.
Cleanse and purge me in the wateeeeeeeeer.
