Original song, ©2010 Raymond Yates

lyrics

Long days, long nights
Sun encircling
Do you want to, don't you want to
Run through the freeze
Through the trees of uncertain fortune
Towards clemency or mass distortion
Don't mind that you're scared
You are prepared and ready for anything
You'll be shaken in the world's parts tester
You'll come out broken but much better

You're headed for a fall, its alright
When it starts to rain, you won't care anymore
If down is up, left is all right
When it starts to rain, you won't care anymore

When it rains
You're all polished up and prodded
When it rains
Leave home with or without it
When it rains
Answers will fall like water
When it rains
Honors the same as fodder
When it rains
Your worries are accepted
When it rains
You will not be rejected
When it rains
You will not be rejected

The grass it grows beneath your toes
And so it goes
Yeah now you see the cost of freedom
We need our chains and illusions
Our problems so we can find solutions
So we can feel like we have freedom
We need to feel like we have freedom
