When the rain falls
The sun will rise
But the trees won’t grow at all

Brother calls
Sister cries
When the rain falls

We grow tall
We inch closer to our demise
But the trees won’t grow at all

Our emotions brawl
Our heart sighs
When the rain falls

We can stall
All of our strength can arise
But the trees won’t grow at all

Our backs against the wall
There is no prize
When the rain falls
But the trees won’t grow at all
