An emerald rain is dripping from the gates
That lead into the sovereign streets of gold
And when the gold retires into stone
The statues formed are gods who have been slain
The sword by which they died was emerald rain
9 Silver drops are tears of him who hates
14 Are heralds of the castle's cold
The frozen and king and castle once were bone
But now are ice, and all is ice in tain
Ice melted is distorted emerald rain
It's hard to understand
Wherefore he waits to play his hand
The earth is young and it's a fool
When next you blink you'll watch it be thrown to pieces
The screams were wrought for that they could be played
Together as the sound of emerald rain
The screams were wrought
(The screams were wrought)
For that they could be played
(For that they could be played)
Together as the sound of
(Together as the sound of)
Emerald rain
(Emerald rain)
The screams were wrought for that they could be played
Together as the sound of emerald rain
