Swimming in the Flood

Passion Pit · Manners [2009]

My eyes have once again been proven wrong

Your clouds, your blanket and my pity song

Hovering on your front lawn

Carry on until it's gone



What can I do?

The river's overrun

We're swimming in a flood, you know?

I thought I felt your touch

But the water's rising up



Then I lie naked in a rampage

In the flesh, face to face with the onset

I forget everything that's ever made me

Rise again

Now slowly leave my memory



What can I do?

The river's overrun

We're swimming in a flood, you know?

I thought I felt your touch

But the water's rising up

Now all my lovers raise their cups



What can I do?

The river's overrun

We're swimming in a flood, you know?

I thought I felt your touch

But the water's rising up

Now all my lovers raise their cups
