Since the Water Rose Lyrics

At the river bed dusty green

Step inside the old ark with me

Sunlight creaking through the bowing wood

On faded monsters they drew in blood

And look! All God's creatures were not enough

They carried all their nightmares

Through the flood

Now you're never all alone

Not since the water rose

It poured down like this before

It came roaring out from the deepest well below

On the last day before the fall

On our little city lawn

Drinking seltzer from the can

Picking basil with our hands

Because our creation has proved too much

Look now! There's a nightmare to overcome

But you're never all alone

Not since the water rose

It bore down like this before

It came thundering out from the deepest well below

Ruin shadows everything

Every sun, every offering

And under all this blue glass shattering

I wonder what the scattered light would bring

See we're never all alone

Not since the water rose

There's an ancient undertow

Beyond love, beyond letting go

No, you're never all alone

Not since the water rose

It poured down like this before

It came roaring out from the deepest well below
