waiting for the flood

• arena'nın 2000 tarihli immortal? albümünden bir şarkı. bazı anlarda o kadar silent lucidity'e benziyor ki fark etmemek imkansız:

  sözleri de şöyle:
  
  many times this world has been my playground
  an endless field of images, not too profound
  ı let you read between the lines, if you think you can
  part of someone's grand design of
  sainthood, childhood
  slipping through our fingers
  there it is in black and white for you to shout out loud
  but all those empty promises just sow more seeds of doubt
  let my vision smother you in heartache
  ıt freezes like the venom from a rattlesnake
  ıt really doesn't matter now, the end will be the same
  ıt really doesn't matter how the world will rise again
  there's nothing you can do to stop the river flowing blood
  the betting man has played his hand
  he's waiting, waiting
  look for me in everything material
  live and breathe philosophy and spiritual escape
  you'll find me in the films and in the theatres
  through the minds of novelists and orators
  ıt really doesn't matter now, the end will be the same
  ıt really doesn't matter how the world will rise again
  there's nothing you can do to stop the river flowing blood
  the betting man has played his hand
  he's waiting for the flood
  you walked with me before, you know
  we crossed this land before, you know
  you talked with me before, you know
  you held my hand before, you know
  ıt really doesn't matter now, the end will be the same
  ıt really doesn't matter how the world will rise again
  there's nothing you can do to stop the river flowing blood
  the betting man has played and we're just
  waiting for the flood
  you followed me too far and it's too late to turn around
  you followed me too far to stop the world from being drowned
  there's nothing you can do to stop the river flowing blood
  the betting man has played and we're just
  waiting for the flood
