A flood is an overflow of an expanse of water that submerges land. The European Union (EU) Floods Directive defines a flood as a covering by water of land not normally covered by water. In the sense of "flowing water", the word may also be applied to the inflow of the tide. Flooding may result from the volume of water within a body of water, such as a river or lake, which overflows or breaks levees, with the result that some of the water escapes its usual boundaries.
While the size of a lake or other body of water will vary with seasonal changes in precipitation and snow melt, it is not a significant flood unless such escapes of water endanger land areas used by man like a village, city or other inhabited area.
Floods can also occur in rivers, when flow exceeds the capacity of the river channel, particularly at bends or meanders. Floods often cause damage to homes and businesses if they are placed in natural flood plains of rivers. While flood damage can be virtually eliminated by moving away from rivers and other bodies of water, since time out of mind, people have lived and worked by the water to seek sustenance and capitalize on the gains of cheap and easy travel and commerce by being near water. That humans continue to inhabit areas threatened by flood damage is evidence that the perceived value of living near the water exceeds the cost of repeated periodic flooding.

Soon is coming the rain
And it will be green again
Looking into her eyes
Wishing for a drop from the skies
Soon is coming the rain
And it will be green again
Looking into her eyes
Wishing for a drop from the skies
We’re gonna go outside to the rain
We’re going out to dance in the rain again
Soon is coming the rain
All the plants will be drinking then
Pouring down to stay
Washing all the people away
We’re gonna go outside to the rain
We’re going out to dance in the rain again
We’re gonna go outside to the rain
We’re going out to dance in the rain again
Baby girl, I'm watching over you
And our mother told us what we cannot do
It's pouring down, it's taking over you
Thank God our mother told us what we cannot do
You've got the lines
You've got the makeup to make it out alive
Did you forget what water does to your crooked smile?
Wash it away and you're left with nothing
Nothing but a face
Thank God our mother taught us what we cannot erase
Climb up the ladder
Don't drop your eyes until you hit the top
It's scary up there if you don't say your prayers before you start to fall
People below you
You're sure they'll catch you
But you are wrong
Thank God your mother finally showed you where you belong
You've got the sad lies
You've got the bad guys on your side
And pretty girls that break my sister
To me she'll confideit's getting higher, it's my last chance now
Don't say no
Cursed are we who look like beast but walk like men
We breathe temptation, we live in sin
Cast away to them we are remains
and every fucking chance they get they take and take and take
They build the cages: We take the bait
They dig the ditches: We add the weight
So creep to life from every gutter in this town
Piss in every sewer, overflow the underground
No fucking roses
There's no one worth forgiving,
We'll burn they dead for warmth and wait

Ask me what I believe in
I'd say compromise.
Once you know you can't deny.
If we open the flood gates...
We let it all in.
Don't lose your head...
Swim to the middle or
To the other side.
It makes no difference
I'd follow you close as a shadow.
I'd kiss your words...
But here in the sand
We've drawn the line.
Can you feel this
Flood of life?
Can you feel this?
Let it all in. Yeah.
This heart of mine,
Open up this flood of life.
This flood of life.
Here comes the flood.
There's some hope of love
Left in those rainbow eyes.
On your way up
To touch higher ground,
You said you'd never change
This revolution heart.
Say what you will
You fly with me and
I couldn't love another.
Now ask me what I believe...
I'm lost in your chaos...
Here comes the flood
Let it all in.
Can you feel it?
Flood of life.
Feel it coming? Overflowing? Yeah.
It's this love of life.
Open up this flood of life.
If you'll open up you'll see
Just what love could be.
Where you're standing now,
Just feel the love.
Flood of life.
It's taking over, let it all in. Yeah.
This heart of mine, it feels the love.
Flood of life,
And it all feels right.
It feels so right.
Yeah, can you feel the flood now?
Open up and let it in.
Just open up and let it in.
This heart of mine feels the love,
Feels the flood of life.
Feels right. It feels so right.
Where you're standing now,
Just feel the love.
Flood of life.
It's something you can't divide,
And once you know then you'll decide.
This heart of mine feels the love,
Feels the flood of life.
And it all feels right.
Fly, you get high, right?
Fly, and you get high, right?
Try, you get by all right
Try and you get by all right
Ryde, you're my bright light
You're my bright light
Oh God, I'm high
Waterfalls of light
Flood my eyes with light
Flood my eyes with my aching eyesight
My aching eyesight
In my life there's a washing wave...pushing on and
pulling away...building up like a hurricane...crashing
down just to do it again...I wish I could swim across the
sea of grey...floating out it's another day...sailing
free like a feather in the wind...carry me learning to
swim The river will find what we're lacking inside...and
the water will rise cleansing our blurry eyes No one
knows what the tide will bring...the shore is dry it's
leaving me...I realize I'm goin nowhere drowning in
space, but... The river will find what we're lacking
inside... and the water will rise cleansing our blurry
eyes... What we're missing, clear to vision, nothing's
free, not this time... naked vision where we're swimming,
wake up, Son open our eyes What we're missing, clear to
vision, nothing's free, not this time... naked vision
A cap comes off the 40 ounce
The bowling captain's out to pounce
Uncap the joy, out of control
The night cat goes within my soul
Yeah, all right
Gonna ride with the flood tonight
Yeah, all right
I'm gonna ride with the flood tonight
The girls, the bars
We're smoking joints in the car
A hundred miles an hour through the meadows
I'm stump-jumpin' drunk from the get go
Yeah, all right
We're gonna ride with the flood tonight
Yeah, all right
We're gonna uncap with flood tonight, let's go
The night cat makes me wanna sing
Because I don't feel a thing
Except all the joy in the world
Come on, get in the car, let's go
Yeah, all right
Gonna ride with the flood tonight
Yeah, all right
I'm stump-jumpin' drunk from the get go
Stump-jumpin' drunk and let's go
I'm animal
Can you get me out?
I could bite
Trust gets me out
And I'll fight with you
If you ask me to
I'll kiss you
I will never lose touch
Flood my open
Or otherwise we'll miss out
I'm animal
You devour me
And I can wait
But I don't like waiting
And so I wait
Cause you ask me to
I miss you but I
Will never loose touch
I don't like waiting
And so I wait
I miss you but I
Will never loose touch
You're my kind of girl
You could be
My inspiration still
And you fill it all
But I don't like waiting
But I wait here
Fllod me open
Or otherwise we'll miss out
Fuck it!
Die!
(Help Me Die!) x3
Help me…
Cutting your flesh fuels my sick obsession
Knowing when to quit keeps this breath alive
Gasp, whimper imperative, rushed it
Alone is not enough to quench my thirst for
PAIN as the needle penetrates my SKIN!
This heart begins to slow!
Adding torment, painful retribution
Moving symphony: Circle of LIFE!
Last winter they found the killer
Deft, alone
They’ll never end this overwhelming
PAIN as the needle penetrates my SKIN!
This heart begins to SLOW!
I’ve never been so AFRAID!
Life is over, NO!
Let it begin…
I’m so afraid…
I know every child was taken, some skinned
Every mother, father torn to pieces
Grief stricken hearts, an unknown repent
Life comes with a price to be paid
I have lost my love, now remain
Part of me for all of time!
Unleash the floodgates on this unrelenting enemy!
Still born society damn the demons takes control
Still born of liars as all the guns steal the ones they
love
Immoral actions points the problem, quarreling
Well, I’ve never been so afraid to tell
Well, I’ve never been so afraid to die!
NOW as the needle penetrates my SKIN!
This heart begins to SLOW!
I’ve never been so AFRAID!
Live is over, NO!
Rain, rain on my face
It hasn't stopped raining for days
My world is a flood
Slowly I become one with the mud
But if I can't swim after forty days
and my mind is crushed by the thrashing waves
Lift me up so high that I cannot fall
Lift me up
Lift me up - when I'm falling
Lift me up - I'm weak and I'm dying
Lift me up - I need you to hold me
Lift me up - Keep me from drowning again
Downpour on my soul
Splashing in the ocean, I'm losing control
Dark sky all around
I can't feel my feet touching the ground
Calm the storms that drench my eyes
Dry the streams still flowing
Cast down all the waves of sin
And guilt that overthrow me
Lift me up - when I'm falling
Lift me up - I'm weak and I'm dying
Lift me up - I need you to hold me
Your arms, so low to the ground
They're filled with taconite, oh
Oh, your back, the slightest curve
You feel the weight of it all
La da da dum da dum
Oh, your feet, they shuffle around
Like you packed your body with sand
To keep the rains back
Oh, your feet, they shuffle around
You feel the weight of it all
When you feel the weight of it all
Oh, you dance the saddest dance
But you're dancing, you're dancing it all
La da da dum da dum
Oh, you dance the saddest dance
You feel the weight of it all
When you feel the weight of it all
You feel the weight of it all
But you might go
Up and away
Watch you move through the earth
Moving like light
But you might go
Up and away
Watch you move through the earth
Moving like light
Let your thoughts go
Let them move you
Move through the earth
Moving like light
Let your thoughts go
Let them move you
Move through the earth
Rain is falling from the sky
It touches everything
Brings new life...
He came in April
The month of rain
Sweeter than anything
It changed my life
To know what love is
Love in the water
Our hearts were happy then
Loving each other
There is sorrow in the eyes
Of the people in my life
They are hungry
They can't see
Pray for a flood
To swallow us up
He left in June you see
Left me dry
Blood chilled with bitterness
There was another...
With the storm clouds above me
I wait for rain
And look to the mountaintops
To hear his voice
There is sorrow in the eyes
Of the people in my life
They are hungry
They can't see
Pray for a flood
Pray for a flood
Pray for a flood
Pull me from the wreckor watch and stand sereneshards of broken glassshattered like the innocence we lost so long ago
See me emptyand fill me with a false sense of warmth and cold, so cold
I don't owe you anythingpurge this skin of feelingleft me cold and trembling
I don't owe you anything
Am I afraid ofhow much sense this makesdo I denyand tempt the inevitablecan I restrain this floodfrom rising rising rising...
Over Prudence Hall we fall. Unassuming, quiet all.
Peaceful town square. We float in on streams of air.
(if you take note don't stop and stare)
White steepled church we perch upon
the fenceposts, trees, poles wirelines
We stay up high
Birds eye View
Silly Humans, why burn your bridges down?
Should you go with the flow? (Drip dry)
Quick, kick your feet around
Should you never condone flash flood for medicine?
Live where you don't belong.
Just Cause. Don't judge your weatherman
Every year convention here. One by one we come
Survey the quality of your damage done

FLOODS come from RAIN falls from the SKY drinks back the FLOOD
It cycles like the leaves (and so do we)
Silly Humans...
Concientious Objectors. (but we have no conscience and we won't object...'cause we're as right as rain)
We know it's only human nature is not kind
Even birds must take their bath sometimes
(too much oil on the wings is a dangerous thing)
We're your bitter partisan. Familiar, welcome enemy
Here comes the water.
All I knew and all I believed
are crumbling images
that no longer comfort me.
I scramble to reach higher ground,
some order and sanity,
or something to comfort me.
So I take what is mine,and hold what is mine,
suffocate what is mine, and bury what's mine.
Soon the water will come
and claim what is mine.
I must leave it behind,
and climb to a new place now.
This ground is not the rock I thought it to be.
Thought I was high, and free.
I thought I was there
divine destiny.
I was wrong.
This changes everything.
The water is rising up on me.
Thought the sun would come deliver me,
but the truth has come to punish me instead.
The ground is breaking down right under me.
Cleanse and purge me
This is the last party before die
I won't die, I'll just feel like shit
If someone offers me another drink
Dig my grave and throw me in
THIS IS THE LAST PARTY BEFORE I DIE !
I WON'T DIE
I'LL JUST FEEL LIKE SHIT!
I've been here since five p.m.
And I've been up all night
Then some girl walks up to me
And I can't say things right
A pain in my head, my eyes are blood red
The police are at the door
I'd better run and try to hide
Here they come, let's go!!
Sometimes I get sick of it
Then again, I don't want to quit
Social leprosy's not for me
Partying keeps my sani
Pull me from the wreck
or watch and stand serene
shards of broken glass
shattered like the innocence we lost so long ago
See me empty
and fill me with a false sense of warmth and cold, so cold
I don't owe you anything
purge this skin of feeling
left me cold and trembling
I don't owe you anything
Am I afraid of
how much sense this makes
do I deny
and tempt the inevitable
can I restrain this flood
from rising rising rising...
I get carried away
Fuck it!
Die!
(Help Me Die!) x3
Help me…
Cutting your flesh fuels my sick obsession
Knowing when to quit keeps this breath alive
Gasp, whimper imperative, rushed it
Alone is not enough to quench my thirst for

NOW as the needle penetrates my SKIN!
This heart begins to SLOW!
I’ve never been so AFRAID!
It seems I lost myself again.
Let it build up some more without release.
Find a space and time to loose it all again
Because you’re standing on the crack that’s breaking me.
How much longer does silence exist in here
Without me falling apart at the seams?
I’m tired of letting myself get crucified.
I’m sick of you pointing your finger at me.
I’m keeping my head above the water that pulls me in.
I’m breathing in slowly, incase I drown again.
What do you think of my disposition?
What do you think of this one tracked mind?
Hands clutched around this silent surrender
And as you move on I stay behind.
I’m keeping my head above the water that pulls me in.
I’m breathing in slowly, incase I drown again.
I thought I let it out, but I guess I let it in.
The water is rising and it’s pulling me under again.
I’m tired of pretending so if I just open up
Then it’ll all be a surprise and you’ll just shut the fuck up.
The wind and the rain
And the deep blue sea
Ahead and around
As far as the eye can see
Is it only cheap comfort
Or an easy way out
But did I have any choice
But breaking out?
What good is a life
If all that it brings
Is the pain and frustration
To dance on the strings
What good is a man
If he's got nothing to give
If he's too strong to die
