lyrics

Rain in the distance
I can sense the geosmin
And then the first drop taps
Brief calm the orchestra begins

Arms raise to conduct
Bursts from above
This score of gray blue suits
Our cultural synesthesia

Flash flood
The flux emerges up the way
Rushing nearer with no warning
Find the highest ground and wait
In this place
Where the sky consumes the upward side
Observe torrential feeds
As thunder blares and levels rise

Damage overwhelming
Not a single fish to mind
Servant to a bigger cause
It’s in our nature to unwind

It’s fair to let them know
These waves unearth the beasts
Pinged fragile patchwork
Sewn to prisms hung from gentle beams

Flash flood
The flux emerges up the way
Rushing nearer with no warning
Find the highest ground and wait
In this place
Where the sky consumes the upward side
Observe torrential feeds
As thunder blares and levels rise

Reveling lights
A single ray pierced through the haze
Water climbs
But to a point then ends this phase

One inhale
Crescendo’s tail permits our sigh
Avid sight
Now sated deep, perhaps to rise

Flash flood
The flux emerges up the way
Rushing nearer with no warning
Find the highest ground and wait
In this place
Where the sky consumes the upward side
Observe torrential feeds
As thunder blares and levels rise
