Les Enfants Terribles past-members-nav-header

I’d love to tell you what I see,
but I don’t think that you would believe me
So take some time to look around
and you might see what has been going on
Colors changing all around
Stone is melting into the ground
The acid rain is coming down
Winds of fire burn all aorund

So come on a tell me you don’t think it’s true
How much more convincing will I have to do
Wait any longer and it won’t be safe
and that’s when you all will find out it’s too late

Water dripping from the walls
The things you see, they aren’t there anymore
If you step closer you may see
something not quite so foreign to me
That burning feeling in the air
is not your mind, no now it’s really there
The acid rain is coming down
and this is one time I don’t want to drown

Yellow and orange now fill the sky
Remember when that’s where the birds used to fly
And water which once washed away at the shored,
is no longer there, you all thought there was more

(Solo)

The acid rain is coming down
burns you feet as they touch the ground
The acid rain is coming down
it won’t be long ’til there’s no one around
Rain of death, down from the skies
the air’s afire and nowhere to hide
The acid rain is coming down
and this is one time I don’t want to drown
