[Verse 1]
The pacific age
Is growing strong
Its arms embrace with a killing grace
It shakes your hand as it takes your place
[Verse 2]
The modern age
Like a slow revenge
A wave that breaks over distant shores
It begs for mercy
And it take some more and more and more
[Chorus]
The pacific age comes down like rain
Washing over us again and again
It's spreading west like a speeding train
As the wheels slow down and we lose the game
[Verse 3]
The pacific age
Tells no lies
A dream that calls like an open door
It keeps you hoping
But it takes, it takes, it takes some more
[Chorus]
The pacific age comes down like rain
Washing over us again and again
It's spreading west like a speeding train
As the wheels slow down and we lose the game
The pacific age comes down like rain
Drifting over us grain by grain
It's rising up like a fatal flame
As your heart slows down and you lose the game
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
The pacific age comes down like rain
Washing over us again and again
It's spreading west like a speeding train
As the wheels slow down and we lose the game
The pacific age has no regrets
It feeds on dreams, it wins its bets
A new dawn breaks from east to west
And the plans we made stop making sense
The pacific age, it calls your name
It bites your hand, you feel no pain
And racing home you run in vain
As your heart slows down and you lose the game
