Transcript

00:00When the night shows, the signals grow on radios

00:26All the strange things, they come and go as early warnings

00:33Stranded starfish have no place to hide

00:38Still waiting for the swollen Easter tide

00:45There's no point in direction, we cannot even choose a side

01:00I took the old track, the hollow shoulder across the waters

01:09On the tall cliffs, they were getting old on sons and daughters

01:16The jaded underworld was riding high

01:22Waves of steel hurled metal at the sky

01:31And as the nails sunk in the cloud

01:35The rain was warm and soaked the crowd

01:44Lord, here comes the flood

01:52We will say goodbye to flesh and blood

01:57If again, seas are silent and angels still alive

02:06It'll be those who gave their island to survive

02:15Drink up, dreamers, you're running dry

02:27Well, the flood calls, you have no home, you have no walls

02:51When the thunder crash, you're a thousand miles within a flash

02:58Don't be afraid to cry at what you see

03:04The act is gone, there's only you and me

03:11And if we break before the dawn

03:17They'll use it, what we used to be

03:25Lord, here comes the flood

03:32We will say goodbye to flesh and blood

03:40If again, the seas are silent and angels still alive

03:49It'll be those who gave their island to survive

03:58Drink up, dreamers, you're running dry
