and it rained all night and washed the filth away
down new york airconditioned drains,
the click click clack of the heavy black trains,
a million engines in neutral.
the tick tock tick of a ticking time bomb
50 ft of concrete underground,
one little leak [bad word] a lake says the
tiny voice in my ear piece.
so i give in to the rhythm, the click click clack.
im too wasted to fight back
tick tock goes the pendulum on the old grandfather clock

i... i can see but i can never reach you

and it rained all night and then all day,
the drops were the size of your hands and face,
the [bad word] out to see what's up.
we pull the car up from the river.
it's relentless
invisible
indefatigable
indisputable
undeniable
so [bad word] it looks so beautiful?
 [bad word] the moon falls from the sky?

can see you, but i can never reach you
i can see you but i can never reach you
