And It Rained All Night

And it rained all night and washed the filth away
 Down New York air-conditioned drains
 Oh, the "click-click-clack" of the heavy black trains
 A million engines in neutral
 Oh, the "tick-tock-tick" of a ticking time bomb
 50 feet of concrete underground
 "One little leak becomes a lake"
 Says the tiny voice in my earpiece
 So I give in to the rhythm, the "click-click-clack"
 I'm too wasted to fight back
 "Tick-tock", goes the pendulum
 On the old grandfather clock
 I, I can see you
 ♪
 But I can never reach you
 ♪
 And it rained all night and then, all day
 The drops were the size of your hands and face
 The worms come out to see what's up
 We pull the cars out from the river
 It's relentless, invisible, indefatigable
 Indisputable, undeniable
 So how come it looks so beautiful?
 How come the moon falls from the sky?

 I can see you
 But I can never reach you

 I can see you
 But I can never reach you
