about

Produced by Jason Faye.
Strings by Beatriz Lima.
Creative input from TomTom.

This song was created as a vocal freestyle, straight off the top over a simple guitar loop - which became the backbone of the instrumental.
Because of the freestyle nature of the song, you'll notice that it takes you on a journey with soft folk vibes to start and a huge Bass, electronic finish.

lyrics

Days get longer as I get older.
I take off one shoe, then the other.
I’m always looking for something new, I’m always trying to find my groove.
I step in the water, step in the mud.
I’m waiting for something like flood, like flood.
Like flood, like rain, like something other than this pain.
I’ve been walking for so long and I am always finding this same song.
I take off one shoe and then the other.
Lay my feet down flat upon my mother, put my head back in the grass and look up.
Tell me why this praying hasn’t found me any Holy Father.
I’ve been waiting for something new.
I’ve been walking for so long.
I’ve been praying for something.
Flood, flood.
Rain come, rain come, wash me now.
Flood come, flood come help me drown.
All the, all the sound that is playing in my head.
I just want something different, I just want something new.
All of this trouble on me, all of it’s in my shoes.
So I take off one foot then the other and I place them on the belly of my mother
And I walk in the water and walk in the mud and I pray for the rain and pray for the flood.
Flood, flood, rain, rain, wash me, wash me, wash me.
Wash me, wash me, wash me, wash me, wash me.
Rain come, rain come, wash me now.
Rain come, rain come, wash me now.
Rain come, rain come, wash me now.
