Water creeps through the windows
Up the stairs
Chilling rain
Like an ocean

Everywhere

 Don’t want to reach for me do you?
I mean nothing to you
The Little Things Give You Away
And now there will be no mistaking
The levees are breaking
All you’ve ever wanted
Was someone to truly look up to you
And six feet under water
I do

 Hope decays
Generations disappear
Washed away

 As a nation simply stares

 Don’t want to reach for me do you?
I mean nothing to you
The Little Things Give You Away
But now there will be no mistaking
The levees are breaking
All you’ve ever wanted
Was someone to truly look up to you
And six feet under water
I do
All you’ve ever wanted
Was someone to truly look up to you
And six feet under ground now I
Now I do

The Little Things Give You Away
All you ever wanted was someone to truly look up to you
