Waiting For The Flood Lyrics

Many times this world has been my playground

 An endless field of images, not too profound

 I'll let you read between the lines

 If you can

 Part of someone's grand design of

 Sainthood, childhood...slipping through our fingers...

 

 There it is in black and white for you to shout out loud

 But all those empty promises just sow more seeds of doubt

 Let my vision smother you in heartache

 It freezes like the venom from a rattlesnake

 

 It really doesn't matter now, the end will be the same

 It really doesn't matter how the world will rise again

 There's nothing you can do to stop the river flowing blood

 The betting man has played his hand

 He's waiting....waiting

 

 Look for me in everything material

 I live and breathe philosophy and spiritual escape

 You'll find me in the films and in the theaters

 Through the minds of novelists and orators

 

 It really doesn't matter now, the end will be the same

 It really doesn't matter how the world will rise again

 There's nothing you can do to stop the river flowing blood

 The betting man has played his hand

 He's waiting for the flood

 

 You walked with me before, you know

 We've crossed this land before, you know

 You've talked with me before, you know

 You held my hand before, you know

 

 It really doesn't matter now, the end will be the same

 It really doesn't matter how the world will rise again

 There's nothing you can do to stop the river flowing blood

 The betting man has played and we're just

 Waiting for the flood

 

 You've followed me too far

 And it's too late to turn around

 You've followed me too far

 To stop the world from being drowned

 There's nothing you can do

 To stop the river flowing blood

 The betting man has played and we're just

 Waiting for the flood

 

 We're waiting

 We're waiting...waiting for the flood

 We're waiting

 We're waiting...waiting for the flood

 We're waiting
