First comes the flood we’re floating around
and then the crash can you hear the sound
but who do we trust when none can be found
it’s enough to drive a person underground

And you enter the room, a suite of insincerities,
as the waters reflect the darkness ‘round your basin of lies
you’ll have to excuse our informalities
but we came here to say we won’t back down and the truth will rise

and you can’t keep us down keep us down keep us down
no you can’t keep us down keep us down keep us down

Next comes the change served on the breeze
by the crowds of people just trying to breathe
push comes to show of we fall to our knees

we’ve had enough can’t you just stop please

But you enter the room, a suite of insincerities,
as the waters reflect the darkness ‘round your basin of lies
you’ll have to excuse our informalities
but we came here to say we won’t back down and the truth will rise

what we have here is a failure of self reflection
what we have here is a difference of conception
all that we rely on has been laid to waste
all the things you touch turn into disgrace (2x)

you enter the room, a suite of insincerities,
as the waters reflect the darkness ‘round your basin of lies
you’ll have to excuse our informalities
but we came here to say we won’t back down and the truth will rise
