Rasputina We Stay Behind lyrics

"There was a black rainbow that rose up and covered the town"
Exclaimed Howard Blue, twenty-two
"I've never even had a nightmare or a beautiful dream about this"
He said as he watched the warehouses burn

The hurricane pilot swoops into the twenty-five mile wide eye
And he gasps 'cause the size of it was astounding
The towering columns of cumulonimbus stretched six miles high

Two friends remembered a wooden leg with a shoe
Detached from its owner while he slept
Twenty-two bodies found tied together in violet


Living in a mausoleum, making governments of our own
As the sky turned pink four horses emerged from the water
Lead by a stallion, they start grazing on neutral ground

We are the ones, the ones who stay behind
We stay behind
We are the ones, the ones who stay behind
We stay behind
