Freedom in the Flood
Skirmish: Independence (or the lack... (@robinleaf)Liner Notes
This is a mix of the "Independence" skirmish and the Midsummer Oracle challenge. The card I got for the Oracle challenge was "rainfall" and that got me thinking about cleansing, especially as it comes to certain current events in the USA. `

Lyrics
I'm ready for the rain
I can feel it in my veins
Wash everything away
Let the sharks come out to play
It's independence day
Can you see it in their eyes
Empty soul and precious lies
I know you like to fantasize
You might finally reach the sky
Come away with your due prize
But the thunder's rolling
The bells are tolling
Almighty knowing can’t save us now
The storm is coming
But I'm not running
They say it ends in fire and blood
But there's freedom in the flood
Jealousy and toppled thrones
Misery and broken homes
They will use our stolen bones
Grind them down to cobblestone
Say we're things of long ago
And the thunder's rolling
The bells are tolling
Almighty knowing can’t save us now
The storm is coming
But I'm not running
They say it ends in fire and blood
But there's freedom in the flood
So take your children, take your love
Turn your gaze to up above
Anger will never be enough
No, not enough
And the thunder's rolling
The bells are tolling
Almighty knowing can’t save us now
The storm is coming
But I'm not running
They say it ends in fire and blood
But there's freedom in the flood
There's freedom in the flood
