Rain In Death Valley

The sun cracked the earth It left its mark A land of dust A world so stark The air hangs heavy It burns the sky A place where rain forgets to cry But whispers crawl through the canyon deep A storm’s faint echo begins to creep The sky It trembles The ground takes note A single drop The desert’s throat Rain in Death Valley It’s a fleeting ghost A fragile blessing where life seems lost It falls like secrets the earth can’t keep Rain in Death Valley It makes dust weep Cracked soil drinks But it’s never enough The storm is fleeting The land stays tough Puddles form and vanish like a dream A fleeting kiss from a forgotten stream The rain writes poems on barren stone Words that vanish once they’re known The clouds move on The sun returns The valley sighs The longing burns Rain in Death Valley It’s a fleeting ghost A fragile blessing where life seems lost It falls like secrets the earth can’t keep Rain in Death Valley It makes dust weep Track from the ToneBoneMachine album "Rain In Death Valley".
