Intro:
Verse:
The possible dream; finale of seem
The moment that some call eternal, that some call insane
Now helmets on each head, awaiting the first led
The pageant is named: the Pencil Rain
Verse 2:
The infantry stands and holds out its hands
The marshall s binoculars focus; and skyward they train
They re searching the yonder blue - they look out for Number Two
The heraldry of the Pencil Rain

Verse 3:
And now hear the roar that none can ignore
The thunderous clatter of splintering wood and lives that are claimed
And none who have witnessed all can speak of a nobler cause
Than perishing in the Pencil Rain
