I built this house with my own two hands
I laid every brick and I worked the land
For years it has stood through the wind and rain
The storms, they would come, but the house remained

But this time, this time, this time, it was too much to take
The walls, the walls, the walls, the walls started to shake

Now there's no escape from the rain
No escape from the rain, no escape from the rain
Now there's no escape from the rain
No escape from the rain, no escape from the rain

Oh, the water came through the walls and floor
And I closed up the hatch and I locked those doors
Well the splintering wood made an awful sound
And I covered my head as it all came down

This time, this time, this time, it was too much to take
The walls, the walls, the walls, the walls started to shake

Now there's no escape from the rain
No escape from the rain, no escape from the rain
Now there's no escape from the rain
No escape from the rain, no escape from the rain

This time, this time, this time, it was too much to take
The walls, the walls, the walls, the walls started to shake

Now there's no escape from the rain
No escape from the rain, no escape from the rain
Now there's no escape from the rain
No escape from the rain, no escape from the rain

This time, this time, this time, it was too much to take
The walls, the walls, the walls, the walls started to shake

Now there's no escape from the rain
No escape from the rain, no escape from the rain
Now there's no escape from the rain
No escape from the rain, no escape from the rain
