An August night and all the main street lights are low
Turn off the brights as stars repeat their midnight shows
This air's a tomb crawls into the room and takes hold
You can pray all day for the pouring rain, but it never rolls
Shades are drawn, and eyes peak out when darkness falls
Bring the Flood. Bring the surge that storms these walls
We can runaway from these corn-fed planes or let them take hold
We can leave today down the fire escape or sit here getting old
If driving all night gets you somewhere
Let this blackness be our day
The world is blasting in stereo on the interstate
Bring the Flood.
If you can't save yourself, save your own.
The wind picks up and shakes the core of all we've known
This air's a tomb crawls into the room and takes hold
We can leave today down the fire escape or sit here getting old
If driving all night gets you somewhere
Let this blackness be our day
All the waiting is over
I will be the first one out and never look back
I will be the first one out and never look back
If driving all night gets you somewhere
Let this blackness be our day
The world is blasting in stereo on the interstate
