Tenth track from the album Saint of the Open Opera (2010)
lyrics
Acid Rain
Nathan Brown and Ginnifer Brown, 2010
Watching as the smoke pours from your honest fear
Polluting the room with broken dreams
Bent another spoke out of this tarnished gear
Extruding the truth from both extremes
Scent of ammonia stings my eyes
When acid rain makes Venus cry
Littering the path with pilgrim miseries
Following the gloom of methane clouds
Trailing all this trash out of these treasuries
Hollow as the tombs in silent crowds
Smell of ammonia brought me 'round
While acid rain broke Venus down
Love bonds with lye left me alone
A flake of stone
Chemical fires burn my fav'rite memories
Engulfing the past in pitch-black oil
Bury all the mourners with their enemies
In trouble, the vast sea starts to boil
Streams of ammonia down the wall
Since acid rain made Venus fall
Love bonds with lye left me alone
A flake of stone
