The Flood Lyrics

When the face that's looking back at you

Appears now to be strange

Was it them or you who changed?

Eyes that hold an emptiness

Where once had burned a flame

But have long since felt the same

Our dreams, they never mattered

Because they never could come true

And if all the things we did came flooding back to you

What would you do? What could you do?

You took away much more from me than I ever could believe

Another heart ripped from your sleeve

And maybe you'll regret the things you never meant to say

But here they are, not going away

Our dreams, they never mattered

'Cause they never could come true

And if all the things we did came flooding back to you

What would you do? What could you do?

And if you're closing your eyes to the world

You'll be blinded by the things you won't see

Infatuation that's so easy to lose

Perspective of just who we should be

Sometimes I can't disguise the pain

Sometimes I can't release the things that go wrong in my world

Your eyes look so different to me

So lost, but they're trying to see

Your eyes look so different to me

At what cost should it matter to me?

Your eyes look so different to me

The words change the way things could be

Your eyes held a secret from me

It's too late for the answer to be set free
