In The Flood

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 thе shore
This weight of root and rot

I long to reach thе 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 know
Who can take my hand in the flood?
