Rise Against - Historia Calamitatum lyrics

Even though we know, yeah we know
Our time has almost come we're all overdue
Can there be a place to call our own?
Can there be a road that takes us home?

We toe the line (toe the line)
We go along (we go along) we don't belong
To you now

When it rains it pours like summer storms
The skies as grey as leaves
The rivers flood the banks and
Spill into the streets
But the people laughed and
Swore that they'd restore
The city piece by piece
And then the clouds gave way as if to agree
When it rains it pours

The mystery unknown now unfolds
The life that we once owned, first bought
Then sold
Like messengers of war, we've no control
To oceans unexplored this ship sails through

We toe the line (toe the line)
We go along (we go along) we don't belong
To you now

When it rains it pours like summer storms
The skies as grey as leaves
The rivers flood the banks and
Spill into the streets
But the people laughed and
Swore that they'd restore
The city piece by piece
And then the clouds gave way as if to agree
When it rains it pours it pours
(It pours)

When it rains it pours
When they die we mourn when it hit, we swore
Now we want not more like a saint re-born
Like a rose in a storm like a child un-born
A child un-born

It's the coin we're tossing into the well
It's misfortune that we could not foretell
It's the dry spell

When it rains it pours like summer storms
The skies as grey as leaves
The rivers flood the banks and
Spill into the streets
But the people laughed and
Swore that they'd restore
The city piece by piece
And then the clouds gave way as if to agree
When it rains it pours it pours
When it rains it pours
