Lyrics

[Verse 1]
(Good morning flood of blood)
(Good morning everyone)
[Verse 2]
C-O-double-M-O-N
[Verse 3]
A wave, an awesome wave
That rushes skin and widens in flooded veins
Breathe in, exhale
I've poked a nerve, he'll slap me like a whale
[Verse 4]
Slaps the C-O double-M-O-N
[Verse 5]
Tide out, tide in
A flood of blood to the heart and the fear slipstreams
Breathe in, exhale
I've poked a nerve, he'll slap me like a whale
[Verse 6]
Slaps the C-O-double-M-O-N
[Verse 7]
Flood, flood, flood, flood
Of blood, blood, blood to the
Heart, heart, heart to the
Heart, heart, heart, heart
Flood, flood, flood, flood
Of blood, blood, blood to the
Heart, heart, heart to the
Heart, heart, heart, heart
Flood, flood, flood, flood
Of blood, blood, blood to the
Heart, heart, heart to the
Heart, heart, heart, heart
Flood, flood, flood, flood
Of blood, blood, blood to the
Heart, heart, heart to the
Heart, heart, heart, heart
