There is a river deep in my valley
Jagged rapids and the bony salmon thrash upstream
But never spawn
Never spawn
No
Rock velvet and sky in my unstable valley
The lava is alive
Shallow beneath the dirt
Crystal glacier pure and ancient
Move an inch a year
All it can muster
It's a monument
It's a monument
Rain on fire
Rain on fire
Rain on fire
Rain on fire
There is a meteor deep in this canyon
A jagged jewel just inches under crust
A dream nеver dreamt nevеr dreamed
No
From some foreign sky some unstable system
Light years of travel shallow beneath the dirt
Atoms bashing pure and ancient
They will mine it yet
We will mine it yet
It's a monument
It's a monument
Rain on fire
Rain on fire
Rain on fire
Rain on fire
Rain down sideways and the wind's carving ice
And a team of scientists dressed for the freezing cold
Find evidence of life
Rain on fire
Rain on fire
Rain on fire
Rain on fire
Rain on fire
Just like blood
Rain on fire
Rain on fire
