Undercurrent - Part 2 - The Flood (Mirror)

[Verse 1 - Voice 1: rising, losing grip, faster] The anchor snapped, the current won The still was just a loaded gun I held it down until it turned Now everything I touch gets burned [Verse 1 - Voice 2: trying to cut through, barely heard] You're wearing what you swore you'd never be The wave that drowned you is the wave you're sending free [Chorus] Flood and fury, fury, flood The water turns to rising blood Tearing down what I had built Drowning everything in guilt [Verse 2 - Voice 1: full storm, the rage turned weapon] I'll turn my pain into a blade I'll drag my ghosts out of the shade The silence broke and now I'm loud Judge and jury, angry crowd [Verse 2 - Voice 2: losing the fight to be heard] The compass broke — you broke it first You're quenching fire with a thirst [Chorus] Flood and fury, fury, flood The water turns to rising blood Tearing down what I had built Drowning everything in guilt [Solo: violent, chaotic, dissonant — losing control musically] [Bridge - Voice 1 only, cracking] I became my own disaster Held the mirror up too late Every wall I built from anger Was a door I should have stayed I called it standing up I called it finding voice But the flood doesn't listen The flood doesn't choice [Chorus - slower, spent] Flood and fury, fury, flood The water settles into mud Nothing left that wasn't mine Everything I broke was fine [Outro - both voices, exhausted] The flood recedes The flood recedes The wreckage stays The wreckage stays
