Why Did It Happen Again

When the floods came before did we learn a lesson
And now there here who will ask the question
Why did it happen again, tell me why did it happen again
Tell me why did it happen again, tell me why did it happen again

Drain pipes clog with debris reminding us of our inadequacy
Masses live on the flood plain and the land can’t hold the rain

So tell me why

Yeah the rain came down from the varnished sky
We all looked up and we wondered why
The rain came down the water got real high
We all looked up and we still don’t know why

So we dare the water to come but we never plan to run
If we were psychics then maybe we would see
That we’re the ones that cause the Tragedy

But me and the millions we dare in our silence
Mother nature will keep her defiance

So tell me why
