lyrics

I am more powerful in the rain. People run, and I remain (soggy biscuit). I need the water running down my skin. I shed my mortal clothes to let more in. I let my body take a good, long drink. The only thing that's ever taken me down, made this boat sink, is fighting the curse of the Vorus. / My muscles tremble as the thunder shakes, and little puddles become Great Lakes. I let my body take a good, long breath. Soon I'll be running like a little boy. Running from your kiss of death, and fighting the curse of the Vorus. / It's a blink of an eye before the whole thing's done. Before your skin is cracked. Before you're back to being no one but another servant of some great domain dreaming of wetter times. Dreaming of the rain and fighting the curse of the Vorus.
