Floods

About Floods

"Floods" is the fourth single from Fightstar's second studio album, One Day Son, This Will All Be Yours. It was originally intended to be released as the second single, however this was changed to "We Apologise For Nothing" due to the recent floods in the UK at that time. Charlie Simpson has stated the song deals more with environmental issues, such as global warming and climate change, and about how people have influenced their own downfall within it. The song was released on their MySpace on 14 January 2008. In a question and answer session in September 2007, both Charlie and Alex confirmed that the third single from the album would most likely be Floods. Eventually, it was, in fact, "Deathcar" released on 3 December 2007. However, during another Q and A session on the band's official forums on 28 November 2007, Alex confirmed they were worked,on new tracks to be possibly used as part of an EP for the "Floods" release. It was confirmed via the band's official website and MySpace, that "Floods" would be released as the latest single on 3 March 2008. It reached No.3 on the UK Rock Chart, and No.2 in the UK Indie Chart, but failed to chart in the UK Singles Chart. more »

 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

You can't all pretend
That you don't know enough
Enough to make sense
All this will be gone
And you can sink beneath
The rapture we've spawned

What have we become

You know we don't have all the entire world
To make the floods seem still
You know we don't have all the entire world
To make the most of this

Blood will bleed the blind
When the only thing diseased their lives
Let not the sun their lives
On the wrath of this inconvenient truth

What have we become

You know we don't have all the entire world
To make the floods seem still
You know we don't have all the entire world
To make the most of this

Just smile like the idiots you are

You know we don't have all the entire world
To make the floods seem still
You know we don't have all the entire world
To make the most of this

Fightstar are an English alternative rock band from London, formed in 2003.

Although generally considered a post-hardcore band, Fightstar are also known to implement metal, progressive and acoustic elements into the band's sound. During the band's initial emergence, they were faced with much scepticism due to Simpson's former pop career. However, they began to receive positive reactions to early live shows and their debut EP, They Liked You Better When You Were Dead (2005) was a critical success.
