The last days of the rain machine

The lies made holes for the truth to escape
As the engine hissed its defeat
Looks like we'll have to walk she said
Then took the first strange steps in the heat
The last days of the rainmachine
The last road we'll ride
The last days of the rainmachine
The last tears you'll see me cry

So walk we did on sand turned glass
Our heads bent by the wind
And looking back, reflecting sun
Was a useless scrap of tin
The last days of the rainmachine
The last road we'll ride
The last days of the rainmachine
The last tears you'll see me cry

We sucked this world down to its brittle bones
Now our throats are dry as dust
We thought we could force nature's hand
But she turned her guns on us
The last days of the rainmachine
The last road we'll ride
The last days of the rainmachine
The last tears you'll see me cry

Wiping the smile off the face of the earth
Letting it all slide away
Kicking the teeth of the world at our feet
And wondering why these are our last days
