12 sau paulo rain





there's always a party on funeral row, where the cross flashes red to the 

street.

and gasoline dreams of girls in blue jeans, he's grazing the surface od sleep.



the vultures on main street are eyeing you up, calculating the wait of your 

bones.

and midnight graffiti appears on your door, so we all can sleep safe in our 

homes.



and the storms in the distance hold no rain, and i feel my resistance giving 

way.

shelter me from this sky, dance with me one last time... sau paulo rain... sau 

paulo rain



do not disturb this blood red earth, there's giants sleeping beneath, 

and carnival queens on their deathbed scenes all go through the motions of 

grief.

take another hit, let the bottle slip through your fingers and break like a 

promise made...

the day i remember, my heart i will keep, my voice i surrender and i will not 

speak to lie.



we were so alive, we were so alive. 

shelter me from this sky, dance with me one last time... sau paulo rain... sau 

paulo rain
