Swish

swish, there goes that lake.
swish, there goes a house.
swish, there goes those people.
swish, there goes everything.
lakes being being overfilled,
every second that i turn,
all the fish are being killed,
i think i'd rather burn and burn.
homes skating down our street,
faster then you could press repeat,
every memory gone and drowned,
feels like this is all year round.
all i hear are screams and screams,
people getting washed away,
i really wish this was just a dream,
why does this have to start today?
people crying left and right,
watching it get washed away,
it all happened only midday,
when, when, when will we see bright.
