Meta for the Metaphor - The Levee

Love may come around
Never making a sound
And they are wrong to say
"What's late will never stay"

I've said it all along
"It never can be wrong
If we move in close
When we're not verbose"

This new world that we find ourselves living in
Is it truly here?

Oh, it's all that I know
The heart was heavy
It cracked open like a levee
I drowned. I drowned
In all the love that I found, I found

Oh, it's all that I know
The heart was heavy
It cracked open like a levee
I drowned. I drowned
In all the love that I found, I found
I found, I found, I found

Subtle sensation
Instant elation
Sprouting feelings bloom
And dance around the room

Discussing our truth
Disregarding our youth
We'll reap what we sow
We'll watch our bounty grow

Walk slowly with your bare feet through the garden
You can feel what's real

Oh, it's all that I know
The heart was heavy
It cracked open like a levee
I drowned. I drowned
In all the love that I found, I found
I found, I found

Oh, it's all that I know
The heart was heavy
It cracked open like a levee
I drowned. I drowned
In all the love that I found, I found
I found, I found, I found

Small cracks form at first
The levee starts to burst
As it comes undone
We'll choose not to run

Lay us now to rest
Knowing we did our best
Eons set us straight
While the stars assign the date

Take a breath as you wash away with the water
Then breathe out with me

Oh, it's all that I know
The heart was heavy
It cracked open like a levee
I drowned. I drowned
In all the love that I found, I found
I found, I found

Oh, it's all that I know
The heart was heavy
It cracked open like a levee
I drowned. I drowned
In all the love that I found, I found
I found, I found, I found
I found, I found
I found, I found
I found, I found
I found, I found
I found, I found
I found, I found
