Don't cry if you've never seen the rain
a thousand ways we come undone
and they're never quite the same
When the air we breath is golden brown
I don't seemly understand
We have built a common masquerade

We are not down. So why dismount?
For the walk to the store is a toll
It won't be long, we're comin round
And that time that we cull will be old

Don't cry if you've never seen the rain
Go back to where your memory served and recognize the pain
Don't drink the water war will bring
Or open gates not meant to swing
So we don't see the red spread on the ground

Don't let me down, don't lay off
For the time that we cull is our own
We know we're comin round
And the way that we walk will last long

I've been afraid and so lonely
And my heart's bleeding through to know only
There comes the moments we always
Look back to the sun that we know

Don't let me down, don't lay off
For the time that we cull is our own
We know we're pushing change
And we all need to walk in the rain
