Rain on Fire

(Dobbyn)

from "Twist"

There is a river deep in my valley
Jagged rapids and the bony salmon thrash upstream
But never spawn- Never spawn- No
Rock velvet and sky in my unstable valley
The lava is alive- Shallow beneath the dirt
Crystal glacier pure and ancient
Move an inch a year- All it can muster
It's a monument- It's a monument

Rain on fire- Rain on fire- Rain on fire- Rain on fire

There is a meteor deep in this canyon
A jagged jewel just inches under crust
A dream never dreamt never dreamed- No
From some foreign sky some unstable system
Light years of travel shallow beneath the dirt
Atoms bashing pure and ancient
They will mine it yet - we will mine it yet
It's a monument- It's a monument

Rain on fire- Rain on fire- Rain on fire- Rain on fire


Rain down sideways and the wind's carving ice
And a team of scientists dressed for the freezing cold
Find evidence of life

Rain on fire- Rain on fire- Rain on fire- Rain on fire

Rain on fire- Just like blood- Rain on fire- Rain on fire
