Lightning Claps Songtext
von Susurrus Station

The lust of the cities tunnels our way
To think we′re sinking a foot every day
The forest lies sidewise
On a truck roaring out of here

All is well when the well runs clear
Time to sell what you never held dear
The fault lines intact
And the lightning claps


Cavorting all over the countryside
Making believe you're the only child
In a world made just for you
The sun could never burn right through

All is hell when the well runs dry
Time to sell what you′ve always prized
The dust bowl has cracked
And the lightning claps

Clinging tight to the atmosphere
When no one bothered counting the years
The miracles profane
And now it just won't rain
