Raindrops from ONCE by Danjal
Raindrops is the first single from a new five song EP, due to be released October 1st 2013.
About the track:
A raindrop falling into the ocean has no choice but to go with the flow, a raindrop falling on the ground evaporates as soon as the sun peeks out.
"Raindrops" is a song about an individual's quest for a purpose.
We live on the surface of a machine that is so complex that no one can predict its actions. We can just hope that it works, and that, if the works, it includes us.

Lyrics
Raindrops in the sea working under cover
protecting you and me from each other
Raindrops in a war underneath the surface
No one knows for sure how they serve a purpose
Raindrops raindrops raaaaindrops
raindrops raindrops raaaaaaindrops
raindrops
Raindrops in the fields fighting for a country
defending their ideals and doing dirty laundry
Raindrops in the sea working under cover
protecting you and me from each other
Raindrops raindrops raaaaindrops
raindrops raindrops raaaaaaindrops
raindrops
Raindrops fall from the sky
trying to find a hole to leak through
into the light
but in the dark they drown in lies
trying to find a crack to break through
into the light
Raindrops...
Raindrops in the sun
dried up and deserted
picking up a gun
for the last time...
