lyrics

This is the rain we wanted, this is the flood
This is the deluge happening from up above
This is our constant failing, this is my word
This is the danger calling, as it occurs

Here is their power fading, here is the weight
Here is the road we wanted to far away
Here is the book of meaning, here is the lie
Here is the voice of reason, I’m losing my sight

But you don’t believe me or you will not say
Taking all my meaning, walking away
I’m not waiting for this ending
I won’t live with their degrading lies

This is the system breaking, this is the freeze
This is the silent creeping, violence released
This is the end of knowledge, this is the fall
These are the new dark ages, blinding us all

But you don’t believe me or you will not say
Taking all my meaning, walking away
I’m not standing still for ever
I won’t live with their degrading lies
