This Is A Rape

This flood wants to rape you

Outside it resides and it smiles

Lucy, we've all come to save you

But first we'll see how loud you scream

This flood doesn't like you

He wants to be alone, but he can't be lonely

This flood soaks your curtains, you give him your certains

You give him your plans, you give him your thirties

This is a rape, this is a bankrupt robbery a grand larceny

So hands will go up, this is a stick up

Give me everything

If only we could hold this forever

The breath, the breath, the headline rising

We will scramble just to dam up the river

But knowing full well we don't be staying dry

Go home, go home

To your dismal apartment see how the flood left it

Go home, go home

Give those bovines a bedsore

'Cause that's all you're good for, you know

Now you know

Once you sandbag the walls and pray to God to defend that

You know, we all know

All the king's men can't put this back together again

My soul don't want peace or tranquility

My inner self does not require equanimity

My soul wants reservations

No, I wanna be someone who never needs reservations

In my heart I want my nose to be smaller

My incarnation wants my fingernails longer

And when it comes up to your knees

Don't hold your breath, just breathe in deep

I want to be able to say in a disassociated way

"What the fuck," and "Whatever"

If only we could hold this forever

The breath, the breath, the flood line rising

We'll scramble just to dam up the river

But knowing full well we won't be staying dry

Go home, go home

Keep your hands where I see them

Your wallets, your reason

Go home, go home

It's your life or your money do don't try nothing funny

You know, now you know

Once you sandbag the walls and pray God to defend that

You know, we all know

All the king's men can't put this back together again.
