The Little Things Give You Away

Water gray through the windows

Up the stairs

Chilling rain

Like an ocean

Everywhere

Don't want to 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 want to 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

(The Little Things Give You Away)
