about
This song is about the end of an unrequited love affair: a falling in love so consuming that it grows to biblical proportions, destroying everything else inside your mind. It is a destruction from which you cannot hide, waking you up in the middle of the night, making a shipwreck of your life. Yet while this mayhem erases every pattern you had forced your old life into, a new energy rises from the dust and makes you feel alive again for the first time in ages: out of the old shell you created for yourself a new self is born. From darkest catastrophe we journey to joyous rebirth, and let the waters from the flood wash us clean.
lyrics
Love is the Flood, baby
There's nowhere to hide
My life is a relic
Floating by
Love is the Flood, baby
I feel alive
My sins are diamonds
In the dirty ground
Love is the Flood, baby
Broke every riverbank
Every fence in which
I stored my life
Love is the Flood, baby
It brought me back to life
High water everywhere
I woke up in the middle of the night
Love is the Flood, Love is the Flood
Love is the Flood, Love is the Flood
Love is the Flood, baby
You don't know how much
Pain I've been through
That maybe I left behind
Love is the Flood, Love is the Flood
Love is the Flood, Love is the Flood

Franky Maze builds a rich, multi-dimensional sound: simultaneously evoking the vastness of natural places and the realm of
the small and intimate. Bright indie-electronica touches breathe fresh air into smoky gravel tones. As his winding dark lyrics travel through spectral states, Maze’s sound evokes Bon Iver crackling on a bonfire and Nick Cave stumbling into the wilderness....more
