lirik lagu quiet hollers – flood song
all the drunks under the freeway
are waiting for some flood to come around
and it’s so hard to keep my head above water
sometimes i just want to let go and drown
i live down where the river trash
washes up all the way to street
and every once in a while i find something worth keeping
but i still ain’t never found my feet
i never paid much mind to storm warnings
i say what’s coming is coming all the same
and it’s a perk of living under the freeway
that you never get caught in the rain
my whole life they’ve been talking about the big one
but i never thought i’d see the day
when a tidal wave worthy of biblical remembrance
would come to wash this whole city away
and you can try to hold your own against it
you can stack them sandbags ten-high
i’ll be floating down main street on a life raft
watching those barricades drift on by
they don’t hide hope under that freeway
just one last stop on your way underground
no, i don’t mind the thought of dying with the city
if we’ve all gotta drown
’cause there’s a peace that comes with drowning
i think i read that once anyway
a rush of a thing called dimethyltryptamine
that comes right as your lungs give way
and you can try to hold your own against it
you can stack them sandbags ten-high
i’ll be floating down main street on a life raft
watching those barricades drift on by
