Well I heard it over yonder the dam was about to break
But I'm just gonna stay here, that's a risk I'm willing to take
I'm not moving out
I'd rather drown
From all that water

Everyone around me started moving out of town
Took all their belongings and moved to higher ground
But I just locked my doors
Said "Bring on the war
Of all that water"

Ooh feel the water
Ooh feel the water
Ooh feel the water
Building up

The mayor came a knocking and said I had to leave
But I just laughed and told him there was no way he would take me
I'm just gonna stay and wait
And when that damn breaks
Well I'll be ready

Ooh cracks are forming
Ooh sirens warning
Everybody to get out
Ooh the water's coming down

Well I heard it over yonder some angels starting to sing
I saw I light but I swam away 'cause I was gonna keep on living
I just took a breath
Tasted air in my chest
Ooh I survived it
