[Verse 1]
When the night shows
The signals grow on radios
All the strange things
They come and go as early warnings
Stranded starfish have no place to hide
Still waiting for the swollen Easter tide
There's no point in direction
They can't even choose a side

[Chorus]
Lord, here comes the flood
We will say goodbye to flesh and blood
If again the seas are silent in any still alive
It'll be those who gave their islands to survive
So drink up, dreamers
You're running dry

[Verse 2]
I took the old track
The hollow shoulder across the waters
On the tall cliffs
They were getting older, sons and daughters
The jaded underworld was riding high
Waves of steel hurled metal at the sky
And as the nail sunk in the cloud
The rain was warm and soaked the crowd
[Chorus]
Lord, here comes the flood
We will say goodbye to flesh and blood
If again the seas are silent in any still alive
It'll be those who gave their islands to survive
So drink up, dreamers
You're running dry

[Verse 3]
When the flood calls
You have no home, you have no walls
Oh, in the thunder crash
You're a thousand minds within a flash
Don't be afraid to cry at what you see
The actor's gone, there's only you and me
And if we break before the dawn
They'll use up what we used to be

[Chorus]
Lord, here comes the flood
We will say goodbye to flesh and blood
If again the seas are silent in any still alive
It'll be those who gave their islands to survive
So drink up, dreamers
You're running dry
