Rain, rain, don't go away...

Inspired by today's weather. Thank you, Caedmon’s Call.

Oh like April showers on the slick cement
When I consider how our light is spent
Keeping the candles inside the cathedrals
Hold on tight, don't go into the night
So full of evil, evil

Rain, rain, don’t go away
We need you this dry and dusty day;
Rain, rain, don’t go away
Though some may say please go away

Oh like April showers on the slick cement
And the roads once straight have now become so bent
Weaving through the trees of vain security
Rounding round the hard rocks of hard morality

Rain, rain, don’t go away
We need you this dry and dusty day;
Rain, rain, don’t go away
Though some may say please go away

And the sacred cows feed on the green
While the least of these are dying in the streets
And they’re crying...

Rain, rain, don’t go away
We need you this dry and dusty day;
Rain, rain, don’t go away
Though some may say please go away
