Tekst Utworu

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 scraping change out
From the gutters and the bathroom stalls
He finally boards a Greyhound
Just in case the flood is coming after all
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"
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 teeth
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
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"
And the bus rolls south
Noah drinks until he cannot feel his mouth
So he starts to count to 40 days
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
And he hollers, "God, I thought you made me for a reason
It's too damn 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?"
