| Lyrics |
Theres a storm outside and the gapbetween crack and thunder, crack andthunder closing in.
The rain floods gutters and makes a great sound on concrete
On a flat roof theres a boy leaningagainst a wall of rain aerialheld high, calling"come on thunder come on thunder"its a monsoon, the rain lifts lidsoff cars spinning busses like toysstripping them to chrome
Across the bay the waves are turninginto something else. Picking up fishingboats and spitting them on the shore
The boys hit lit up against the skylike a sign, like a neon sign.
Then he drops, cut strings legs twitchinginto the gutterthe flood swellshis clothes and delivers him on, delivers him on
Theres 4 new colors in the rainbowan old man takes polaroids butall he captures in endless rainendless rain
He says listen, takes my head, putsmy ear to his and I swear Ican hear the sea.
