• I am trapped by the acid ra-a-ain
    I been tryi-i-n'
    Again and aga-a-ain
    To leave the pa-ain

    So I'm going
    To a place
    Oh, yea-a-ah...

    (To a place where the water is so clear
    A place that my heart holds so dear
    You'd scream in joy if you could hear
    That roarin' waterfall of cheer

    So I am leavin' the acid rain
    Leavin' the sufferin'
    That wickedly awful plague that's held me for
    So long, so long, so long, so long, so long...)

    I am leaving that ocean of sorrow
    That sea of hopelessness
    I'm starting my life fresh
    'cuz it's a new day tomorrow

    So I'm going
    To a place
    Oh, yea-a-ah...

    (Chorus)

    I have built a boat of rising hope
    To cross that sea of pain
    To sail straight through
    The acid rain

    Now I'm going
    To a place
    Oh, yea-a-ah...

    (Chorus)

    (Repeat 'so long' and fade out)
