The Hard Rain Songtext
von Redscale

Tremors shaking the earth
Hope you′re holding on tight
Coming down like a flame
Fires tear the black sky
You should kneel and pray
In despair, screaming and crying
But in the back of your head
You've hurt for quite some time

Let it crumble and fall
Sinking into the fire
Every castle and wall
Every crumb, every fraud
An appropriate pain
Turned to cinder and thrown on the pyre
And you call for the rain
Down from above
Let it all wash away


Stand laughing in the pouring rain
Bear witness to the sovereign
See the wicked head and try to hide
The time is over, but you′re feeling fine
And on Judgment Day
Amidst the chaos, you smile
Arms open, praise the sky
Fire, brimstone, let it die

Let it crumble and fall
Sinking into the fire
Every castle and wall
Every crumb, every fraud
An appropriate pain
Turned to cinder and thrown on the pyre
And you call for the rain
Down from above
Let it all wash away

Oh, I'm blessed by the rain
Let it fall
All endeavors have failed
Time to let go


Hungry mouths, greedy hands
Had to tear it down and have it all
Hatred, jealousy reigned
And the pride that comes before the fall
We overplayed our hand
There's no shelter from this storm
Calling out for the rain
Let it all wash away
