After The Flood Lyrics - Rush - Black Gold

you can't be well enough alone 

you're twisting, going further from home, 

we're spinning out of control 

no touch, no feel 

you take you steal 

you're slipping into patterns again 

another night of cigarettes and short breath 

it's hard to keep it holy 

i try to keep it clean, but honesty is wearing thin 

don't make me give in 

it went too far, 

it left us scarred 

and you've come apart 

it went too far, 

far from the start 

and changed who we are 

you're desperate, you're used to being cold 

so wounded; now go do what you're told 

another night of cigarettes and short breath 

it's hard to keep it holy 

i try to keep it clean, but honesty is wearing thin 

don't make me give in 

it went too far, 

it left us scarred 

and you've come apart 

it went too far, 

far from the start 

and changed who we are 

it went too far and changed who we are
