lyrics
The water’s rising quickly up the shore
The locals give up ground there is no time to mourn
With dreams of high, dry fenced in suburbs, the village is forlorn
Nervous eyes traverse the sky for that final storm
Here the clouds are high and they quickly pass
The earth’s as hard and cruel as broken glass
There were always some who said the good times could not last
We were too busy being free to see they might end so fast
The sky's on fire
The water's high
I love you baby
But my heart is dry
Empty streets and abandoned cars
The taps are dry in abandoned bars
The cities move on but they leave their ghostly scars
Those who stay too late to change stare out on empty yards
The pleasures we once found in all the things we owned
Are dry and empty now as old dead bones
How we gorged, but never full, we stood so all alone
To watch as all we had ignored tore down our homes
The sky's on fire
The water's high
I love you baby
But my heart is dry
The pyramids with their crumbling walls
The Roman ruins that once stood so tall
How their certainty once held us in their thrall
And the citadels that now cast their spell they will too crack and fall
The sky's on fire
The water's high
I love you baby
But my heart is dry
