lyrics

Let it Rain

Watch the bum still beg the streets
While the working poor try to make ends meet
Watch their hearts turn into stone
Cause they’re living off of bread alone

Let it rain down
Watch the sky go dark as our hopes burn out
Let it rain down
As our eyes well up like the soulless clouds of rain…

The single mom is begging for shifts
Paying last month’s price for her ailing kid
Two hundred down on a sore throat caused
By a cancer that haunts us all

Widowed teens at soldiers’ graves
Grieving for the human race
Watch their world just burn away
From the embers of the war we made

The poor the hungry the angry and scarred
Do battle in the prison yard
The dead and buried the widowed and sick
Watch American dreams turn to shit

As the earth slowly crumbles back to the sea
Let our martyrs die in poverty
Let the wars wage on and our poets weep
Let it all end in life’s tragedy
Let it rain…
