It needs to rain We need a great, big river I wish I could stop the burning I just want to go outside I want to go outside but The firewall is so high Oil seeps into the soil Searching for life to soak It burns what is dry Consuming all that is living There is hatred in these flames Licking at the souls of the loving It needs to rain We need a great, big river I wish I could stop the burning I just want to go outside How do I make my way through the firestorm the deluge the vitriolic wave of oil which seeks me out to turn me to ash stripping me of my steady life and love They want to **** us. They want to **** us all. Give me a great, big river Carry me to safety I just want to go outside It needs to rain.

Rain Must Come
It needs to rain We need a great, big river I wish I could stop the burning I just want to go outside I want to go outside but The firewall is so high Oil seeps into the soil Searching for life to soak It burns what is dry Consuming all that is living There is hatred in these flames Licking at the souls of the loving It needs to rain We need a great, big river I wish I could stop the burning I just want to go outside How do I make my way through the firestorm the deluge the vitriolic wave of oil which seeks me out to turn me to ash stripping me of my steady life and love They want to **** us. They want to **** us all. Give me a great, big river Carry me to safety I just want to go outside It needs to rain.
Feelings about a chaotic world.
