Cloudburst

I went riding out one morning
 Thunderclouds out west were forming
 Sky was black by noon that day
 Did not make home before the rain
 Here I'm lost and wandering
 Not knowing what the storm will bring
 Fate looming, assuming
 I'm through
 Every landmark looks the same
 I'm not the first to see this fate
 Storm seems that it will not fold
 I'm soaked and growing ever cold
 No conception of the time
 Water now up to my thigh
 Fate looming, assuming
 I'm through
 Now I return to the earth
 From which I came
 Thunder pounds on me still I know
 I'm to blame
 Voices in my mind echo past prayers for rain
 Land is washed away as the rivers
 Crush their banks
 Rain breaks finally that night
 My home is nowhere I can find
 Everything just washed away
 Back to the earth from which it came
 New plans in my head are pouring
 Out west more black clouds are forming
 Fate looming, assuming
 It's not through
 Now I return to the earth
 From which I came
 Thunder pounds on me still I know
 I'm to blame
 Somewhere in my mind echo past prayers for rain
 Land is washed away as the rivers
 Crush their banks
