As the water drips from the sky, I start to wonder
If I'm still alive then I have to find an answer.
Could it be that it was a dream and I'm still beside her?

Right before my eyes rain just drips and dries.
The water stops.

Wickedness will rain and drown us in her sorrow.
(Sorrow!) We will drown!
If I hope to survive I must think faster, I'm loosing ground.

Temples crashing down all around me, heading
(heading!) towards the street!
The golden city falls.
And with it our lights go up in flames.
