Empty churches, empty pews In the subway nothing moves And the static on the radio is drowning out The sound of Raingod's dancing Empty playgrounds, empty bars I can't remember how it was before the flood When all I had to do was recognise the love that's trapped inside I gave it all, I took it back And in the end there's nothing left Except a shell surrounding emptiness and loneliness A core of pain, I see my pathway shining Raingods with Zippo's A tin man hides a broken heart Raingods with Zippo's He knows the flame has gone that soon he'll fall apart So I lay me down to lie And with the rain my lullaby I drift away to dreamless sleep Leave behind a life that died A victim of a Plague of Ghosts I was wrapped up in my guilt Buried deep within my memories A shelter of self-pity That I know the rain will wash away I sense the storm arriving Raingods with Zippo's A tin man rusts away and slowly falls apart Raingods with Zippo's And all he leaves behind a bleeding broken heart
