She explains, reiterates and reasons but
He don't hear her over his own voice
He tries to drown her in his confidence
But she says water it won't hold me
No your water it won't hold me
She picks apart his didactic stance
Her erudition leaves him stranded out at sea
As she swims to shore she can hear he scream
This water it can't hold me
No this water it can't hold me
I see it all coming down like a water snake
I see it all coming down like a water main break
I see it all coming down like a water snake
I see it all coming down like a water main break
When you've lived so long in a world you own
It's hard to see the fear within a smile
Or the nuances of an empty stare
When there's nothing to hold or hold you back
There's nothing to hold or hold him back
When the system fails and erodes all trust
The rotten pipes just buckle bend and bust
As the water pours and the rafters shake
The deluge leaves heaven in it's wake
The deluge leaves heaven in it's wake
I see it all coming down like a water snake
I see it all coming down like a water main break
I see it all coming down like a water snake
I see it all coming down like a water main break
