Through Me (The Flood) - Hozier

Here comes the flood again Watch it fall from the sky Feel it soak through my flesh and my blood Feel it burn in my eyes When I say how much more can I take I know the water's rising up Watch the waves crest and break And though I may not make a sound I fear that I may drown I fear that I may drown Here comes the wind again Cold that cuts to the bone Pack my bags and I'll head out the door Here I am on my own When I say how much more can I stand? I know my walls are falling down I let the rocks who chose the sand And though I know one left to blame Still I cursed your name I cursed your name So now the end What I've been running from Though I've tried I cannot lift my head Oh, what have I become? When I say how much more can I take? I know my time is running short I am broken and I'm breaking Though I've worn myself so thin Coming home again And though I do not know my heart But I know myself into my bones But if my bones should come apart Then I'll have nothing left to give But if you take me in Coming home again And if you take me in Coming home again

Am I the one to hold This crown of ash and salt? Their kindness calls to me I have to block it out My voice has grown so somber These words don't seem like mine But the iron won't subside No matter, no matter what I try Am I raindrops in the flood? In this emptiness, in the storm If I falter, if I fall The wave inside my soul carries all I know Who can take my hand in the flood? A voice calls me forth Through darkness unknown My heart with silence burns Through solemnness and bone The edge beyond the shore This weight of wood and rot I long to reach the other To find, to find the path we lost Am I raindrops, in the flood? In this emptiness, in the storm If I'm broken, if I'm torn The wave inside my soul carries all I knew Who can take my hand in the flood?

There's paper scattered on the lawn Birds up on the line There's letters left unopened here There never is the time There's messages I should return And people I should call I'm still tripping over echoes Left lying in the hall There's a light comes Through the darkness Slowly to my eyes You can fall back here forever I just never realized Oh, time won't let me go And every night I know That you could pull me through You could always pull me through Even when I'm lying here Drowning in my blues You take the sting out of the rain And bring the sun back up again And you could always pull me through Oh, we stood outside together And we laughed like ancient friends Then we lay down in a field Just where the road begins and ends Well, I see you in the mirror And I watch you from afar My friends all think I'm crazy But I know the way things are Outside I hear voices Underneath the moon And I'm grateful for whatever breaks The silence of this room Oh, time won't let me go And every night I know That you could pull me through You could always pull me through Even when I'm lying here Drowning in my blues You take the sting out of the rain And bring the sun back up again Darling, you could always pull me through I hope you're traveling well now And there's stars over your head And I hope the river carries you Everywhere you said Well, I miss the way you look at me The way you wear your hair And I miss the conversations We left hanging in the air Oh, late at night I wake up Wonder what's been done But I know our life together Will go on and on You could pull me through You could always pull me through Wrap your arms around me And chase away my blues You could take the sting out of the rain And bring the sun back up again And you could always pull me through You could always pull me through

Stubborn little man Did a little hands on a worn out tire He's just like his dad Proud that he had it set aside Until that day Many came and took his life Ditzy campaign Til the rains washed away His beautiful plan His beautiful plan His dreams swept away on a sad Kentucky night He ain't gonna wait for the water what's right Some folks just don't last that long And he won't be dead tonight So he got up Got in his truck and drove around A stroke of bad luck He figured as much It won't keep him down He found fame He lives in a place near Clearwater still Works on a boat Carries a load cause there's lots to feel There's lots to feel His dreams swept away on a sad Kentucky night He ain't gonna wait for the water what's right Some folks just don't last that long And he won't be dead tonight A happy old man Did a little hands-on with his knife Sleeps in the coals The pits and the falls that made up his life Now he's inspired Sits by the fire, how his wisdom sings So much to learn Stories that burn all the joy they bring The joy they bring His dreams swept away on a sad Kentucky night He ain't gonna wait for the water what's right His dreams swept away on a sad Kentucky night He ain't gonna wait for the water what's right Some folks just don't last that long And he won't be dead tonight

فوسط زحمة وناس كتير وطريق أنا ماشي فيه عكس السير وسط الطموح والأمل والتمني فاضلي خطوة توصلني فوسط حاجات ومكيفات بحاول أنسى كل اللي فات في وسط صدري ضلعي مكسور ومن خلاله قلبي شايف نور أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع فوسط الليل وأنا بعيد عن البشر شفت نور يشبه نور القمر بس القمر مسيره يفارق ويسيبني تاني مع الوحدة أحارب فوسط قصة حب يعني وهمية كان لازم أصدق اصل الوحدة قوية مش كل المشاعر حقيقية أنا شفت نور معرفتش اغمض عنيا أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع

You promised a lifetime, but left in a moment I wonder if you even think about me Throw me a lifeline because I'm barely floating Stranded and broken You know you got me lost in the dark Is it too late? Is it too late for us? You know you got me lost in my heart Is it too late? Is it too late for us? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Oh I was wasting my time hoping you'd call But damn you're so cold Oh why'd you make me feel safe Just to walk away Just to let me go Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo You look like an angel Thought I was in heaven But I'm just falling without you with me I thought I was able to learn from my lessons Was trying my best but You know you got me lost in the dark Is it too late? Is it too late for us? You know you got me lost in my heart Is it too late? Is it too late for us? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Oh I was wasting my time hoping you'd call But damn you're so cold Oh why'd you make me feel safe Just to walk away? Just to let me go? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Ohhhh I'll never love again, I'll never love again Ohhhh I'll never love again, I'll never love again Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Oh I was wasting my time hoping you'd call But damn you're so cold Oh why'd you make me feel safe Just to walk away? Just to let me go? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo
