lirik lagu elijah mann – noah
[verse 1]
noah was waiting for the bus
like he can tell a storm is coming soon
folded ticket hides the flask inside his coat
the wind has blown right through
after months of scr-ping change out
from the gutters and the bathroom stalls
he finally boards a greyhound
just in case the flood is coming after all
[chorus]
and he whispers, “god, i know i’m breathing for a reason
i’m just trying to make it through the flooding season
i will stop when the rain has come and gone”
[verse 2]
noah throws his worn-out, mangled bags
into the nearest seat
the pairs of people look him up and down
like he’d get stuck between their t–th
noah steals a swig of evan williams
hoping it’ll help him through the day
he gazes halfway hazy out the window
and there’s not a hint of rain
[chorus]
and he whispers, “god, you know i’m drinking for a reason
i’m just trying to make it through the flooding season
i will stop when the rain has come and gone”
[bridge]
and the bus rolls south
noah drinks until he cannot feel his mouth
so he starts to count to 40 days
[verse 3]
noah wakes up startled
to an empty bus and a violent tone
the driver’s looming over him
tells him that he has to go
noah drags his bags and hope out of the bus
his breath billows like a cloud
and as his last salvation heaves away
that’s when the rain starts pounding down
[outro]
and he hollers, “god, i thought you made me for a reason
it’s too d-mn cold for me to even think of sleeping out here
woah
god, you give me nothing to believe in
is anybody meant to make it through their flooding season?
will i drown in the storm you’ve thrown me in?”
