Lyrics

Bilingual
Woke to the flat black expanse of the window
All sober and starless; the sky over limbo
Sweating my stress into yesterday's shirt
Too late to dream and too early for work
Clock says it's three, but the clock runs slow
Early to rise, nowhere to go
Nothing to do, at least nothing that's free
Let the water keep rising, Lord, let it take me
Glory, glory
It seeps in so slowly
To tied up and trusting to notice a change
But someday you're covered in water stains
Weathered and weakened and all rotted through
Nothing worth saving, yeah, nothing to lose
Can't build or I'll break; I can't change what I've seen
Let the water keep rising, Lord, let it take me
Heart in my hands, and my heels in the dirt
And it's plastered my hair and it's soaked through my skirt
If I fall to my knees like a child in a church
All bloodied and blue-lipped and blinded by hurt, singing
Glory, glory
If this world's not for me
If all rivers find their way back to the sea
Let the water keep rising, Lord, let it take me
If all rivers find their way back to the sea
Let the water keep rising, Lord, let it take me
