Ain't a song in the sky the trees they calm to a still A whisper glides makes its way on down the street A fetid stench steams in curls and it sits on the curb I heard seven trumpets calling from seven lonely hills as I walked on toward the station to get my ticket outta here By noontime with cars heeled and all backed up to a hilt the midday sun began to walk the line black clouds began to pill Here comes the rain
All was calm when it broke From the doorway I could hear it coming down as he spoke Crippled man out on a crate pouring truth out of his throat screaming, "Can't you see it's your own air on which you choke?" "Yes sir but people are just passersby by trade on our way to slave away all day the highways to our graves" "You know the language may have differed but the Romans said the same Don't you know things of this earth will become earth once again?" Here comes the rain!
I gave you love and I gave you this world to those I gave most what do you give me in return? Oedipus kisses mother thrice on the cheek an eye for an eye leaves but just one eye to see Don't rattle its cage! Don't toss up its sands! Cause for things like Fate honey Time's only dice in its hand "How long will you simple ones love your simple ways?" Christchurch woman screams from the turret, "Till it's taken away!" Here comes the rain!
