Through Me (The Flood) Letra - Hozier ft. []

Picture a man

Seen like a speck out from the shore

Swimming out beyond the breakers

Like he's done his life before

He feels a coming of a squall

Will drag him out a greater length

But knows his strength and tries to gather it

And he swims on

Turning back to shore again

Above the outer atmosphere

Of a world he's never seen

And looking down to his new home

He feels the rising of a wave and knows at once

He will not weather it

Like that man

I looked down into the depths when I met you

I couldn't measure it

Anytime I'd struggled on

Against the course out on my own

Every time I'd burn through the world, I'd see

That the world, it burns through me

But when I (When I), I'd let go (I'd let go)

My struggling form (My struggling form), my willing soul (I'd see)

Every time (Each time I) would flow through the world, I'd see (Flow through the)

That the world (The world), it flows through me (It flows through me)

That the world, it flows through me

Picture a grave

Picture six feet freshly dug

The sharp temporary walls

At the long-term cliff edge of the world

Light and air find some new deepness there

And usher down the sky

Where one stands by and tries make sense of it

But try measure loss

Measure the silence of a house

The unheard footsteps at the doorway

The unemployment of the mouth

The waking up, having forgotten

And remembering again the full extent

Of what forever is

With each grave

I think of loss and I can only think of you

And I couldn't measure it

Anytime I've struggled on (When I struggled on)

Against the course (Against the course) out on my own (I'd see)

Every time (Each time I) I'd burn through the world, I'd see (Burn through the)

That the world (The world), it burns through me (It burns through me)

But when I (When I), I'd let go (I'd let go)

My struggling form (My struggling form), my willing soul (I'd see)

Every time (Each time I) would flow through the world, I'd see (Flow through the)

That the world (The world), it flows through me (It flows through me)

That the world, it flows through me
