Water grey
 
 Through the windows, up the stairs
 
 Chilling rain
 
 Like an ocean everywhere
 
 
 Don't wanna 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 wanna 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

 Little things give you away
 
  [4x]
 
 
 
 
  [6x]
 
 
 All you've ever wanted (little things give you away)
 
 Was someone to truly look up to you (little things give you away)
