Floodgates

I'm opening the floodgates I'm opening a window I'm opening a doorway While you're still away

Oh, reach out to those where the shine is As they refuse to be found Deep are the stillest of waters It makes it easy to drown

All in all, nobody knows no one

Only one world is fast asleep Can I find a way to let the last guard down

I'm opening the floodgates I'm opening a window I'm opening a doorway I'm letting all the flies out I've gotta torch my hideout There's nothing left to find out now While you're still away

Help out the ones who are falling When they need no help at all Always the ones who are calling Sometimes it's nice to be called

By yourself Way too long You exhume the fears And then they hang around

I'm opening the floodgates I'm opening a window I'm opening a doorway I'm letting all the flies out I've gotta torch my hideout There's nothing left to find out now While you're still away

The walls will cave The floor will sink As the world's asleep And I'm alone Anxiety The pictures are springing to life again All of this while you're away Hey! What have you got to say?

I'm opening the floodgates I'm opening a window I'm opening a doorway I'm letting all the flies out I've gotta torch my hideout There's nothing left to find out now

I'm opening the floodgates I'm opening a window I'm opening a doorway I'm letting all the flies out I've gotta torch my hideout There's nothing left to find out now While you're still away
