Running From The Rain

There was a sound,

split all the heavens apart

In on the Northern view,

out of the Southern spark

Oh, I will be with you,

running from the rain

When it reaches the end of the line

See myself reflected, in broken glass

As the gates come crashing down

There is blood on the tracks tonight

And rust inside our veins

(We will ache every time I hear the storm)

Running behind me

There were some younger kids

Who followed the tracks that day

It was a passing afternoon

and I came and took them away

So we forgot our names

Lying in the tall grass

underneath the billboard dreams

Oh, I will be with you,

running from the rain

When it reaches the end of the line

See myself reflected, in broken glass

As the gates come crashing down

There is blood on the tracks tonight

And rust inside on our veins

(We will ache every time I hear the storm)

It's running all over [x4]

(The rain)

Running from the rain

See the steam in the distant hills

See the rooftops glitter in the sun

Hear the summer counting down,

Running out, running from the rain

Operator, Operator, did you lose your way

when you got that call your brother made?

You're sick of running and you know it's true

you're coming back,

running from the rain
