Lyrics

The rain never seemed to stay
The fire that burned our tree
We would rebuild it back right there
We would rebuild somewhere
A tear in the tanglevine
With words we could never say
And "Lawrence is nice this time of year"
"Lawrence is nice, today"
"But for all of the falling out
And sordid catastrophe
Oh, we could be friends, or we could love
And either is fine with me"
The terror would take its own
While the city cleared out its bones
A man with a suitcase took our hand
And took us the back way home
He said the blare of the siren's call
It matched a plaque on the Mass. Street walls
And it was a rite that we had passed
It was right after all
And that the scattering of the ash
The blood, and the August snows
And all of the buildings we walked past
Were more of an afterglow
And if everything did work out
Assuming that we would stand
Then I was the fool that loved the lamb
I was a fool back then
Maybe the day they burned our town
We knew a rise would outlast the fall
And maybe all the mountains that we had summited
Were only foothills when we were small
But if we could outlast the long nightmare
How did we lose our zeal
Everything felt so right back there
Before we had time to heal
It's taken me years to know
And further a year to say
But I would forgive it all right now
If we could relive that way
Where the catalyst was ourselves
And you would have chose to stay
And I had not loved one thing so much
Until it burned down that day
No, I had not loved, nor missed your touch
'Til Raintree burned down that day
