After the flood took my family and home
I was left wild in my sorrows and alone
Tender arms that I once knew would not console me ever again
Someone tell me, “This isn’t happening”
After the flood, a preacher came speaking of salvation
He prayed inside the wreckage of my home and blessed the foundation
He took me down to the river to pray
I cut his throat and watched his body float away
I taste the steel of a broken mind and crack a smilе
To snakes are slowly braiding with my tongue and feeding mе a lie
My jaw unhinges with a snap and I try to choke it down
If blood is iron, lies are gold, but a silver lining can not be found
After the flood took my family and home
I was left wild in my sorrows and alone
Tender arms that I once knew would not console me ever again
Someone tell me, “This isn’t happening”
