Sold my soul, heard the sirens

Another day, a vicious silence

Another round of pounding violence

Sold my soul, watched the water

Tried to swim, but it got harder

Now I'm drowning in the waters

Drowning in the flood

Say I'm always misunderstood

Just like you always thought I would

Watch me take the flood and make it

Bend my will and break it

Take everything it gives and

Watch the bottle fill

I am raging, like the waters

Tame me, for a moment, take me

Higher than the great sea

Paint me in the shadows

Crazy, doesn't matter when we

Part the waters

I'll let the flood consume me

Let it break and ruin me

You never even knew me

But as the sirens wail

I will not let my dream fail

The water tells no lies

And neither do I
