We Dream of Rain Ii

We dream of rain
In the setting sun 
in the season of one.
A wildest west and a withered crest, 
the coat of arms. 
A falcon and crown rest. 
Of House and family of dark means, 
cruel needs
We dream of empire and the violent gun.
In the distance of sands, eternal,
lands of the setting sun. 
We dream of perpetual electric cars,
In dark corners and seedy neon lit bars
The influence of dark deeds, 
infernal tower. 
Twins war for control, 
the influence of power.
We dream of rain and desolations planes.
A tyrannical son, 
the deserted lands of dreams.
In a White House on a dark boulevard. 
We see the war for the soul, 
the drug if ruining.  
We dream of the immaculate one, 
of the cleaning rain an angel of infinite grace. 
We dream of rain. 
In an sultry season, the season of None. 
The white quest, the reason for the gun. 
Heavy it is hung. 
The crown of power, the power of one. 
We dream of rain in a wasted land, 
we plead for the second coming , 
we fear the heavy hand the burden of the gun. 
Kill the king as the lovers part, 
rage the wicked and heavens depart. 
A faith of woman’s lace, the white dress. 
In the setting sun in the dry season of None.
A wild west, withered crest, 
A falcon and crown rest. 
Of House of dark means, cruel deeds
We dream of global empire, 
a violent haloed sun
In the distance of eternal,
Lawless lands, rule of the gun
We dream of perpetual electric cars,
In dark corners and seedy neon lit bars.
We dream of rains and the coming of one.
