In The Flood

My hands are full of flowers
My ears are full of songs
My heart has had enough
I'd rather just be wrong
I listen when you talk
Your words all make sense
But underneath it all
I hear where we are going with this

I am raindrops
In the flood
I am emptiness
I am hope
I am lonely in a crowd
But when you hear me
You'll be near me
Stay with me
In the flood

In dreams I never left
I had courage like the beast
My eyes they never fled
My arms would always reach
You've hardened with your words
Maybe fear is armor too
My voice is not that strong
When hurricanes come running from you

I am raindrops
In the flood
I am emptiness
I am hope
I am lonely in a crowd
But when you hear me
You'll be near me
Stay with me
In the flood

The little child inside
Is jealous of your strength
The way you hold your head
When everything's aflame
Your back is straight as you walk away
Straighter than an oak in a storm
Only I remain
Should I have bent
Been reshaped in your image
Is that what you want

I am raindrops
In the flood
I am emptiness
I am hope
I am lonely in a crowd
But when you hear me
You'll be near me
Stay with me
In the flood
In the flood
