COHEED AND CAMBRIA
"The Continuum II: The Flood"

[Intro:]
Oh-no-no
Oh-no-no

We had our sunshine
In a life so surreal
A restricted lifetime
Where death becomes real

I can't find
Where I fit in this place
To trace the lines
That age gave to our face
Understand

[Pre-Chorus:]
You should be afraid of me
Time lost the key
That unlocks the beat of my heart

[Chorus:]
Where I once loved
Now pumps cold blood
You mean nothing to me
A memory lost in the flood

Oh, if I could, I would leave you here
To soldier onward, to face what you fear

The choice isn't mine
To have my time erased
Will you remember
I took up this space?

[Pre-Chorus:]
Are you afraid of me?
Time lost the key
That unlocks the beat of my heart

[Chorus:]
Where I once loved
Now pumps cold blood
You mean nothing to me
A memory lost in the flood

[Post-Chorus:]
Ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah

[Bridge:]
In the days, through the light, the shade saves me from
What you cannot be, I couldn't give to you
With the chance to leave comes the chance I take
To lose everything power illuminates

[Instrumental break]

Water rushing
Everlasting
Over all these precious things
Hear them whispering
Sharing secrets
Through a force-fed lyric

I can't seem to dream anymore
I don't even dream anymore

[Chorus:]
Are you afraid of me?
Time lost the key
That unlocks the beat of my heart
Where I once loved
Now pumps cold blood
You mean nothing to me
But a memory lost in the flood

[Post-Chorus:]
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Just memories lost in the flood
Flood, ah
Just memories lost in the flood
Where I once loved
Now pumps cold blood
When I cease to dream
I'm a memory lost in the flood

[Outro:]
Ah, ah, ah
