Speak in Lyrics

Here comes the water.

All I knew and all I believed
are crumbling images

that no longer comfort me.
I scramble to reach higher ground,
some order and sanity,
or something to comfort me.

So I take what is mine,and hold what is mine,
suffocate what is mine, and bury what's mine.
Soon the water will come
and claim what is mine.
I must leave it behind,
and climb to a new place now.

This ground is not the rock I thought it to be.

Thought I was high, and free.
I thought I was there
divine destiny.

I was wrong.
This changes everything.

The water is rising up on me.
Thought the sun would come deliver me,
but the truth has come to punish me instead.

The ground is breaking down right under me.
Cleanse and purge me in the water.

Some of them were dreamers
And some of them were fools
Who were making plans and thinking of the future
With the energy of the innocent
They were gathering the tools
They would need to make their journey back to nature
While the sand slipped through the opening
And their hands reached for the golden ring
With their hearts they turned to each others heart for refuge
In the troubled years that came before the deluge

Some of them knew pleasure
And some of them knew pain
And for some of them it was only the moment that mattered
And on the brave and crazy wings of youth
They went flying around in the rain
And their feathers, once so fine, grew torn and tattered
And in the end they traded their tired wings
For the resignation that living brings
And exchanged loves bright and fragile glow
For the glitter and the rouge
And in the moment they were swept before the deluge

Now let the music keep our spirits high
And let the buildings keep our children dry
Let creation reveal its secrets by and by
By and by--
When the light thats lost within us reaches the sky

Some of them were angry
At the way the earth was abused
By the men who learned how to forge her beauty into power
And they struggled to protect her from them
Only to be confused
By the magnitude of her fury in the final hour
And when the sand was gone and the time arrived
In the naked dawn only a few survived
And in attempts to understand a thing so simple and so huge
Believed that they were meant to live after the deluge

Now let the music keep our spirits high
And let the buildings keep our children dry
Let creation reveal its secrets by and by
By and by--
When the light thats lost within us reaches the sky

Are you ready maybe
Are you ready maybe
Are you willing to run
Are you ready to let yourself drown
Are you holding your breath
Are you ready or not

Are you willing to run
Are you ready to let yourself drown
Are you holding your breath
Are you ready or not

. . .
Ooh ooh so put your arms around me
You let me believe that you are someone else
Ooh ooh cause only time can take you
So let me believe
That I am someone else

Dame una caricia, dame el corazón.
Dame un beso intenso, en la habitación.
Dame una mirada, dame una obsesión.
Dame la certeza de este nuevo amor.
Dame poco a poco tu serenidad,
Dame con un grito la felicidad...
De llevarte a la cima del cielo
Donde existe un silencio total.
Donde el viento te roza la cara,
Y yo rozo tu cuerpo al final.
Y llevarte a la cima del cielo,
Donde el cuento no puede acabar.
Donde emerge sublime el deseo,
Y la gloria se puede alcanzar.

goodness gracious
spaghetti straps upon a
marinara dress stiletto heels
a cross across your chest

come on in, you sure look pretty
the sheets are clean but the mind is dirty
straight from my lips
goodness gracious

how love is blind
it's deaf and dumb and
crippled and unkind
If you show me yours
I will show you mine

turn around
cut a man some slack
i didn't drag you here to tickle your back
straight from my lips
goodness gracious
