the flood - ye vagabonds lyrics

[verse 1]
bells ringing in the battered yard
evicted this morning, thought you might have heard
at 5 in the morning, they cut their way
we were singing in the kitchen with a bailiff’s charge
we were the young ones, wild things playing
barefoot, dancing in the concrete frost
swimming in a river of smoke and serotonin
our forgotten city of glitter and rust

[chorus]
i
watched the water
rise
and i held my cover
maybe for too long

[verse 2]
there was a time when we kеpt each other floating
all tied togеther, bobbing up and down
we thought for a time, we could hold back the flood
but the old river rose and swallowed our town
there was a time i didn’t get an answer
you said all the things i wished you had to start
you cut me loose and drifted away
tried and failed, wandered apart
[chorus]
i
watched the water
rise
and i held my cover
maybe for too long

[instrumental break]

[chorus]
i
watched the water
rise
and i held my cover
i
watched the water
rise
and i held my cover
maybe for too long
