One of those days
When I was going to see my brother in town
To give him a letter
Written by our father & sealed by our mother
Down in those times
When we used to count the squirrels at home
Or killing the ants
Just to kill time
Or to fill it
With tiny drops of guiltiness
Drizzle of remorse
And forgot
Where we've been coming from
Or why
And we've been sleeping
So tired then.
Sleeping
Sleep
Sleep (Sleep)
What have you got there in your mouth?
I said to my brother
Is it a rubber cake? (Rubber cake)
Feathers & pearls?
Or is it the taste of a stranger?
Something you should share? (Something you should share)
"You are drifting," I said
Why?
Are you a hipster, songster, gangster
Or trickster?
Because if this is just a dream
Then you
Must be very strong (very strong)
"Indeed," he said
I am
Rain
It's a rain
Rain
Falling rain
Rain
Where the rain comes from
That's where I belong
Focking rain
So that's then we left town
With his pickup, a Dodge
Getaway car & astray
And astray we were driving
Away from them lights of the city
Where comfort & complacency reigns
West we were driving
West (West) (West)
Interstate, drifting
(Passing places) Passing places, meadows, ditches (Ditches)
Places bland & sad & wasted
Good at most just to depose
A dead body, if you have to
And doubtlessly no place
Where you wanted a stranger
(Pressing) Pressing your face into the dirt
And taking your breath
(When the last) the last smell you got
Is the pee of a trucker
Heading to Milwaukee
Or down to the Gulf of Mexico, who cares (Who cares)
That's where we passed by
That's where we were drifting
Away (Away)
And furthermore astray we went
Drifting into the sticks
And into the woods
And into the depth & abyss
And I thought to myself
I should better take care
Not to kill all them beetles & toads
And them mice & them moles
And them lizards & snails
Baby snakes & God knows what else
Has been crawling here
Right where this four-wheeler
Ploughed us a way through their life
And my brother said
Brother (Brother)
Let's have us a shot
Of dead butterfly blood

Cold is the night & dark is the rain
Go find yourself & won't you complain
Tipping a toe into the river of pain
Majestically floating under the endless rain
Cold is the night & dark is the rain
Go find yourself & won't you complain
And then as we stood
In the midst of the vast empty night
Blood on the needle
Blood on the tyre
Blood on the cross
The roads been so solid
The moon been so cold
The clouds been so gloomy
The stars been so dark
Like dead broken bulbs in a feckless traffic light
On the empty crossroad of our mind
That's when my brother moaned
And stared into his phone (and starred into his phone)
No reception
As he cried & he cried
Lord Lord, damn Lord
My trouble so high, my fear it is rising.
Creatures & beasts raging
Deep in the den of my sick sicken self
I'm stuck in the darkness (stuck in the darkeness) stuck in alone
And only my brother might know
Why I am drifting
And drifting away (away)
But he's drifting himself, breaking into pieces
Which been blasting slowly hovering, floating
Floating in all different directions to the most distant places
Of the focking universe
So Lord, please Lord
Please help me (help me & heal me)
Please set me free Lord
From the need of my unleashed sickness
And from the turmoil of my drifting mind
Please Lord
Put together (put together) the floundering parts
Of my scattered self (of my scattered self)
So widely dispersed
Please heal me, Lord! (Please heal me Lord)
(Please) please spread your grim angels
Your armies & tanks
And whistling missiles, oh Lord
Please spread them
Up to the skies
And to the stars
And to the moon
And to the clouds
And let them focking rain on me.
Cold is the night & dark is the rain
Go find yourself & won't you complain
Tipping a toe into the river of pain
Majestically floating under the endless rain
Rain (Cold is the night & dark is the rain)
There's no rainbow (Go find yourself & won't you complain)
Rain (Tipping a toe into the river of pain)
Falling rain (Majestically floating under the endless rain)
Rain (Cold is the night & dark is the rain)
Hear the wind blows (Go find yourself & won't you complain)
Into the middle of the earth
Where the humming birds dwell
All the highways, mountains & the trees
Focking rain is falling on & on
Every cover's washed away from me
Highway's like a diamond in the sun
Highway's like a diamond in the sun
Rain
Is getting colder now
Rain
From the frozen clouds
Rain
I'm getting older somehow
Snow's falling down
And covering me

Oh white rain is floating over me
Oh white rain it makes me blind
Every thing/sin is floating down to the sea
White rain will drive me out of my mind
White rain will drive me out of my mind
Dark is the rain & cold is the night
Don't be afraid & you'll be alright
This will be running into the sea of delight
Swim down the river, dive for the light
Rain (Dark is the rain & cold is the night)
It's a rain again (Don't be afraid & you'll be alright)
Rain (This will be running into the sea of delight)
Never been the same (Swim down the river, dive for the light)
Rain (Don't be afraid & you'll be alright)
Everything is new (Dark is the rain & cold is the night)
How will I come through
Dam/n that rain
All the highways, mountains & the trees
Focking rain is falling on & on
Every/s cover's washed away from me
Highway's like a diamond in the sun
Highway's like a diamond in the sun
Rain
It's a rain
Rain
Falling rain
Rain
Where the rain comes from
That's where I belong
Focking rain
That's where I belong
Focking rain

We applaud every man
Every woman
Every child
Every dog & cat & cow
Elephants
Every pidgeon, crow & caterpillar
Every snake, snail, lizard
Bug or ant
Every spider, worm & maggot
In the fruit or in the flesh
For if they were sturdy in life
Doing God's will
And occasionally
Smile
Cold is the night & dark is the rain
Go find yourself & won't you complain
Tipping a toe into the river of pain
Majestically floating under the endless rain
This will be running into the sea of delight
Dark is the rain & cold is the night
Don't be afraid & you'll be alright
Swim down the river, dive for the light
Don't be afraid & you'll be alright
Swim down the river, dive for the light
