We have heard the songs of angels   We have tasted flames from hell   We have seen the fallen hero   We have heard the ringing bell   And it all seems cleaner in the rain   Now it all begins to look the same      We have come into this lifetime   With only a few things on our side   Although we are only mortal men   The choice to change is yours and mine   And it all seems cleaner in the rain   And it all begins to look the same      Now the laughter turns to tears   Now the seconds seem like years   Oh, but I'm still holding on   Driving through the tears      Only one world we've been given   Earth, wind, sea, air   We're burning holes into the morning sky   And we have learned not to care   And it all seems cleaner in the rain   And it all begins to look the same      Now the laughter turns to tears   Now the minutes seem like years   But I'm still holding on   Driving through the tears      And it all seems cleaner in the rain   And it all begins to look the same   Now the laughter turns to tears   Now the days seem like years   I hear the gods begin to cheer   As we watch our sky disappear      This is my exodus   This is my wire   Send it to those who care   I'm still holding on
