Cinder Well - The One to the East and West

Its happened fore to my kin
Several times and its terror again
Water up the walls ‘til it fills the air
To take us from the shore again

We thought the wave was heavier than the air
In our blood and in our lungs
Thought it washed out the light and brought the dark
To take us from the shore again

We are floating up and down
Holding breath and coming up again
We are floating up and down
Holding breath and coming up again

My father feels the shallowness
Flutters his hand toward the light switch
Pulls some bodies from the water depths
To take us to the shore again

The river with the fish in it
The one to the east and west
The river through your hometown
We are floating up and down
