The Flood Lyrics

Oh Leona where’d the time go
It must have died with our younger selves
Now you know if you run too far
You won’t ever find your way back home again
Hallelujah in the present tense
Hallelujah honey run to me
Never mind what your momma said
The devil ain’t got no plans for you baby
Wild young hearts
Sometimes break
And sometimes die
But that’s the chance you take
So take mine
Jump in the flood
Into to the fire we will be drug
With everyone we’ve ever loved
But that’s all right
No one leaves here alive
Oh Leona when did we get scared
Seems like this world wants us to stay afraid
But if you obsess over what happens next
The good you’re given just slips away
Hallelujah in the present tense
And how the hell were we supposed to know
Rock ‘n’ roll can’t save you from yourself
But if your lucky it will save your soul
All the days that came before
We don’t need them anymore

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
