Wake
Listen up
Open your half-closed eyes
Light
Up the dark
Around these islands that we live on
We're calling the rain
We're calling the rain again
And we shall crawl
If the desert breaks our bones
Follow the wind
Until the rain will wet our throats
Wake
Before we grow old
We all die alone
The vultures and the crows
Just follow if we turn
They hog what cannot be undone
Raise
Your head off the ground
The bones and the sand
Make up something to climb
That we can rise to shine
We're trained to come down anyhow
And we shall crawl
If the desert breaks our bones
Follow the wind
Until the rain will wet our throats
We're calling the rain
We're calling the rain again
We're calling the rain
And never come to rest
And we shall crawl
If the desert breaks our bones
Follow the wind
Until the rain will wet our throats
And we will crawl
Until the rain
Until the rain will guide us home
And if we fall
We'll gather up
And if we fall
We can gather up again
