Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Chaos inside
And everywhere I hide
It never stops the hurting
Caught in the riptide
I'm struggling to fight
Underneath the current
[PreChorus]
I think the sky is falling
Looks like the walls are crumbling
Feels like the end is coming
I see the water rising
Just like a wave of pressure building up
It's building up on me
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
The levees of my mind
What's on the other side?
It's bound to breach the surface
Calamity in sight
With nothing left behind
In the wake of the resurgence
[PreChorus]
I feel the doom impending
The ground underneath me shaking
I can see my world upending
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
Hatred is breeding, the vultures are feeding
It's taking a turn for the worst
Can't keep pretending, can't change the ending
When everything's buried in
Dirt
[Chorus]
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
