Maybe The Rain

(album: Lament For The Numb - 1995)

Well this is horror show time in the heart of the Pacific
The French and the cavalry are dealing deadly wares
And you can stand back in anger or totally despair
You can raise your voices up, maybe move some air

Maybe the rain will wash your tears away
Into the stream with autumn leaves
Some other spring may grow
Sometime some other spring may grow
Maybe the rain will wash your poison hands
Into the open belly of the ocean wide
That some other child may grow
Sometime some other child may grow

Well there is no getting out of this the damage is horrific
And while they're tattooing chromosomes
From Bikini to the Marshall Islands
Make your front yard a urinal, during R&R
Yeah this is some kind of suicide, beyond the mere bizarre

Maybe the rain will wash your tears away
Into the stream with autumn leaves
Some other spring may grow
Sometime but some other spring may grow
Maybe the rain will wash your poison hands
Into the open belly of the ocean wide
Some other child may grow
Sometime some other child may grow in the future
Some other child may grow get outta here
Some other child may grow

Maybe the rain
Maybe the rain
Maybe the rain
