Sean Patrick Bradley - Floodwaters Lyrics

Well, I am dancing with death tonight
Baby, the river is crestin' high
Maybe it'll float me up to the sky
Just maybe
And I don't recall what I was sold
But these dirty floodwaters are getting cold
And the bills I owe have clogged the overflow
Well, it's just great
And these hundred-year rains come so hard down
They got Noah with the loners tryin' to up and leave town
Just how do you scream when you're about to drown?
Lungs ain't empty
Floodwaters
Have gone way above my head
And somehow I'm not dead
Was I born to breathe 'em in?
This rain
Will wash me out of my bed
Turn my clothes into lead
I'll still be swimming
Sinking and I'm thinking
Float down to the floor
Making hearts of air bubbles
'Til I can't no more
Something's breachin, there's been seepage
Right through my core
Raindrops racing
I was go with the flow
Now show me the storm
I'm out of breath, out my depth
My soul soaked and worn
I've been dying, I've been grinding
For a kind of honest Lord
The floodwaters got the hospital where I was born
Every time it's, you see
There's just someway to breathe
I bet my angry, toilin, boilin' blood
Could dry up the sea
Workin' tricks, Lord I miss
When my time felt so free
This rushing river here was once my childhood stream
And floodwaters
Have gone way above my head
And somehow I'm not dead
Was I born to breathe 'em in?
This rain
Will wash me out of my bed
Turn my clothes into lead
We'll all be swimming
And floodwaters
Have gone way above my head
And somehow I'm not dead
Was I born to breathe 'em in?
This rain
Will wash me out of my bed
Turn my clothes into lead
We'll all be swimming
We're all just swimming
