The Flood - Progress Tour Live / 2011
Standing
On the edge of forever
At the start of whatever
Shouting love at the world
Back then
We were like cavemen
But we mapped the moon and the stars
Then we forgave them
We will meet you where the lights are
The defenders of the faith we are
When the thunder turns around
They'll run so hard we'll tear the ground away
You know no one dies
In these love-drowned eyes
Through our love-drowned eyes
We'll watch you sleep tonight
Although no one understood, we were holding back the flood
Learning how to dance the rain
We were holding back the flood
They said we'd never dance again
Bleeding
But none of us leaving
Watch your mouth, son
Or you'll find yourself floating home
Here we come now on a dark star
Seeing demons, not what we are
Tiny minds and eager hands
Will try to strike but now will end today
There's progress now
Where there once was none
Where there once was, ah
Then everything came along
Although no one understood, we were holding back the flood
Learning how to dance the rain
There was more of them than us
Now they'll never dance again
Although no one understood there was more of them than us
Learning how to dance the rain
We were holding back the flood
They said we'd never dance again
We will meet you where the lights are
The defenders of the faith we are
When the thunder turns around
They'll run so hard we'll tear the ground away
Although no one understood there was more of them than us
Learning how to dance the rain
There was more of them than us
Now they'll never dance again
Now we'll never dance again
On the edge of forever
At the start of whatever
Shouting love at the world
Back then
We were like cavemen
But we mapped the moon and the stars
Then we forgave them
We will meet you where the lights are
The defenders of the faith we are
When the thunder turns around
They'll run so hard we'll tear the ground away
You know no one dies
In these love-drowned eyes
Through our love-drowned eyes
We'll watch you sleep tonight
Although no one understood, we were holding back the flood
Learning how to dance the rain
We were holding back the flood
They said we'd never dance again
Bleeding
But none of us leaving
Watch your mouth, son
Or you'll find yourself floating home
Here we come now on a dark star
Seeing demons, not what we are
Tiny minds and eager hands
Will try to strike but now will end today
There's progress now
Where there once was none
Where there once was, ah
Then everything came along
Although no one understood, we were holding back the flood
Learning how to dance the rain
There was more of them than us
Now they'll never dance again
Although no one understood there was more of them than us
Learning how to dance the rain
We were holding back the flood
They said we'd never dance again
We will meet you where the lights are
The defenders of the faith we are
When the thunder turns around
They'll run so hard we'll tear the ground away
Although no one understood there was more of them than us
Learning how to dance the rain
There was more of them than us
Now they'll never dance again
Now we'll never dance again
