| [00:06.04] |
|
| [00:16.22] |
Heat haze rising on hell's own hill |
| [00:21.26] |
|
| [00:22.92] |
To wake up this morning is an act of will |
| [00:28.04] |
|
| [00:30.24] |
Walk through the night to get here today |
| [00:35.30] |
|
| [00:37.29] |
To bring your children to give them away |
| [00:42.20] |
|
| [00:43.70] |
Oh oh this cruel sun is daylight never done |
| [00:51.12] |
|
| [00:51.85] |
Cruelty just begun to make a shadow of everyone |
| [00:58.04] |
And if the rain came |
| [01:00.55] |
|
| [01:01.47] |
And if the rain came now |
| [01:05.39] |
|
| [01:11.40] |
Souls bent over without a breeze |
| [01:15.72] |
|
| [01:16.32] |
Blankets on burning trees |
| [01:19.59] |
I am sick without disease |
| [01:22.42] |
|
| [01:23.23] |
Nobility on it's knees |
| [01:25.93] |
And if the rain came |
| [01:28.41] |
|
| [01:29.39] |
And if the rain came now |
| [01:32.83] |
|
| [01:37.31] |
Would it wash us all away |
| [01:40.98] |
|
| [01:43.15] |
On a wave of sorrow |
| [01:45.61] |
|
| [01:46.75] |
Wave wave of sorrow |
| [01:52.75] |
|
| [01:54.35] |
Where now the holy cities |
| [01:56.32] |
|
| [01:57.68] |
Where are the ancient holy scrolls |
| [02:00.22] |
|

You my bride wear a crown |
| [02:10.61] |
|
| [02:11.42] |
On your finger precious stone |
| [02:14.26] |
|
| [02:15.38] |
As every good thing now been sold |
| [02:21.14] |
|
| [02:25.04] |
Son of shepherd boy now king |
| [02:29.26] |
|
| [02:29.80] |
What wisdom can you bring |
| [02:33.39] |
What lyric could you sing |
| [02:36.25] |
|
| [02:36.82] |
Where is the music of the Seraphim |
| [02:39.57] |
And if the rain came |
| [02:42.37] |
|
| [02:43.08] |
And if the rain came now |
| [02:48.76] |
|
