The Dam

Chaos inside
And everywhere I hide
It never stops the hurtin'
Caught in the riptide
I'm struggling to fight
Underneath the current

I think the sky is fallin'
Looks like the walls are crumblin'
Feels like the end is comin' (comin', comin')
I see the water risin'
Just like a wave of pressure building up
It's building up on me

The dam's about to break
I'm standing on the brink
It's washing me away
The damage is done, here comes the flood
'Cause the dam's about to break

Laments in my mind
With something on the other side
It's bound to breach the surface
Calamity inside
With nothing left behind
In the wake of the resurgence
I feel the doom impending
The ground underneath me's shaking
I can see my world upending

The dam's about to break (I'm never getting out alive)
I'm standing on the brink (not ready for the afterlife)
It's washing me away (see you on the other side)
The damage is done, here comes the flood
'Cause the dam's about to break

Hatred is breeding, the vultures are feeding
It's taking a turn for the worst
Can't keep pretending, can't change the ending
And everything's buried underneath

The dam's about to break (I'm never getting out alive)
I'm standing on the brink (not ready for the afterlife)
It's washing me away (I'll see you on the other side)
The damage is done, here comes the flood
'Cause the dam's about to break
