Lyrics
Stands there a smaller city upon rivers
In the mountains there, men forged steel under a ghastly shadow.
When the rains came
Tragedy was forewritten
For men had declared the river a lake
And when the rains came, the river reclaimed itself.
No barrier built knows the truth of Earth, Water and Sun.
When eyes closed and Life laid down en masse
The city, scarred and horrified, became a dire warning
Remembered still by my people.
When the rains come again
Will the next river break free?
