Lyrics: Firebrands. First The Flash Then The Pulse. Rainworld.


Beaming over empty earth
In the pale and milky stratosphere
No one hears the rolling sound
Of ocean waves of tears

Able was I ere I saw
Echoes shifting powder sand
Deserts of an Elba world
Restless as the exiled man

Ooh... we live in the rainworld
Ooh... we live in the rain
Ooh... we live in the rainworld
Ooh... we live

Up above the whirling seas
A window in a darkened sky
Watch horizons disappear
Like dying notes of lullabies

The earth it turns as slow as time
The works of man they pass away
A lonely final pantomime
Only one remains

Ooh... we live in the rainworld
Ooh... we live in the rain
Ooh... we live in the rainworld
Ooh... we live

Ooh... we live in the rainworld
Ooh... we live in the rain
Ooh... we live in the rainworld
Ooh... we live

Ooh... we live in the rainworld
Ooh... we live in the rain
Ooh... we live in the rainworld
Ooh... we live

Ooh... we live in the rainworld
Ooh... we live in the rain
Ooh... we live in the rainworld
Ooh... we live

Ooh... we live in the rainworld
Ooh... we live in the rain
Ooh... we live in the rainworld
Ooh... we live
