AGAINST THE FLOOD LYRICS

1. Left With Us

Submerged
Condemned, alone again
A last attempt to change your ways
And so fucking desperate to keep your new hopes above the waves
Forced to take your last breath
Forced to take the last step
Bound to a fate, in an instant made to choose your god
Your pulled beneath

Awaiting a sign as your life draws to an end
with an open mouth and with closed eyes
you lose direction, a glazed perception
is this drowning?
A gasp of air and a moment to breathe
Your Last chance at faith

Out of shadows you crawl, secure your sins are forgiven
Forgotten but still left with us Still left with us!
A sudden change of heart leaves desire within reach of tomorrow
is this too late!

You can taste the air, you can see the light
you’ve gained direction, a new perception
Am I alive?
A gasp of air and a moment to breathe
Are second chances always enough?
Are second chances always enough?
A reason to make a change
when scars and bruises stain the lives of us
Stain the lives of us
Scars and bruises
Blacken the lives of us

Out of shadows you crawl, secure your sins are forgiven
Forgotten but still left with us Still left with us!

Condemned, alone again
A last attempt to change your ways
And so fucking desperate to keep your new hopes above the waves

A sudden change of heart leaves desire within reach of tomorrow
is this too late!

2. Turn Towards The Sky

Lost,
dead to the world,
it’s too late to make amends,
alone were helpless

I won’t waste another moment in this place
we can’t take it back
The time we seek we cannot hold in our hands
it’s always gone in the blink of an eye

dead to the world
too late to make amends,
alone were faithless

we count the seconds as the world passes by
standing still fading with the days

as darkness fills my eyes
and In this moment I grasp If this is the end I know I am not afraid
I turn towards the sky as the meaning becomes so clear

No point turning back

seasons change no matter what pain we’ve suffered
in the light of a new day make your move

we count up the seconds as the world passes by
standing still fading with the days

I stand here alone staring straight into the distance
it was all simple once the further we fall the more desperate we search for forgiveness
my path left in ruin behind me,
hope still awaits I’ve made it this far

and In this moment I grasp If this is the end I know I am not afraid
I turn towards the sky as the meaning becomes so clear No point turning back
seasons change no matter what pain we’ve suffered
with the light of a new day make your move

make your fucking move

It’s Too Late
I stand here alone staring straight into the distance
it was all simple once
the further we fall the more desperate we search for forgiveness
my path left in ruin behind me, hope still awaits I’ve made it this far

We’ve made it this far

3. A Flawless Calm

How can you stand there and expect me to believe the lies
a flawless calm
so quick to change your mind

Bite your tongue
The tables turn no more
For I can see its guilt that holds your halo high

Without a trace I’ll place these hands around your neck
I’ve tried my best in leaving you
Gave myself too many chances to see this through

If only you would see
Another attempt to open your eyes
you back away
Blinded by the truth you fail to see the reason why
It turned out this way
Shading the fold before you fall

There’s nothing left
but you continue to scrape the surface
There’s nothing left
You got what you came for

The tables turn no more
For I can see through your twisted point of view

You got what you came for
I’ve felt this way before
I thought you were better than this
you got what you came for
I thought you were better than this
The tables turn no more
If only you would listen

Without a trace I’ll place these hands around your neck
I’ve tried my best in leaving you
Gave myself too many chances to see this through
Without a trace I’ll place these hands around your neck
I’ve tried my best in leaving you
Gave myself too many chances to see this through

If only you would see
Another attempt to open your eyes
you back away
Blinded by the truth you fail to see the reason why
It turned out this way

4. Today Will Burn

How can you turn your back on this
Leave me standing here alone
with a head full of broken dreams
And my heart in my hands

There’s nothing left for me now
I Have nothing left to lose

You’ve taken everything
I can’t wait to see the change in you
With heartless intentions i’ll drag you down
I would have pulled you apart by now

Pulled you apart by now

How can you turn your back on this
Leave me standing here alone

And all these memories will slowly fade away
The circumstances will never be the same again

A new day will come
And today will burn
Today will burn

With heartless intentions i’ll drag you down
I would have pulled you apart by now

5. Barriers

Weak, Powerless
These things can only be said so many times before they turn to fears
We all suffer from our insecurities
Take a shot before they tear us apart

speak out in a world so cold
Were sick of this fucking shit
and with nothing to prove
Let’s make one thing clear
Take my hand
We’ll find ourselves again

Its only a matter of time before these feelings bring you to your knees
Its so easy to be mislead when dying to be saved
Dying to be saved

What would it take to see this through
to know you’re not alone
follow me out to reach the end and save yourself
what would it take to see this through
to restore a piece of mind
and make a change

speak out in a world so cold
Were sick of this fucking shit
and with nothing to prove
Let’s make one thing clear
Take my hand
We’ll find ourselves again

they brought this on themselves
they should have know by now we cannot take this
we cannot take this
draw a line in the sand and choose your side
they brought this on themselves
they should have know by now
we cannot take this

we stand together
take a shot before they tear you apart

there’s no reason behind this
follow me out to the end
I’ll draw a line in the sand choose your side

speak out in a world so cold
were sick of this fucking shit
with nothing to prove
Let’s make one thing clear With nothing to prove
