"Acid Rain" by Angra, Album: Rebirth, (2001)

When the world had a tragic fate
We were draining the poisoned sea
Though the scenes were indeed too sad
Only prayers were taking lead

Oh! Just some of us survived
At least a discent woman and a man
Wide awake! Am I alone in this place
Someone hear me ? my only hope!

The Acid Rain is burning
Right into your eyes
Again your dreams may loose the glow
Allow the sorrow of your thoughts to meet sunrise
And shall the hopeful words
Bring love inside your heart

So the world knew a tragic fate
We were draining the deadly sea
And the scenes were indeed too sad
Only prayers were taking lead

Oh! Just some of us survived
At least a discent woman and a man
Wide awake! Am I alone in this place
Someone hear me? my only hope!

The Acid Rain is burning
Right into your eyes
Again your dreams may loose the glow
Allow the sorrow of your thoughts to meet sunrise
And shall the hopeful words
Bring love inside your heart

A scene of future ecological disaster with the acid rain to play the main role. Of course acid rain never be so acidic to produce extensive mass extinction by burning life forms and humans, as song writer imagine, but it is one of the main ecological disasters of the industrial age and one of those that shows us clearly that pollution don’t recognize or is halted by borders.
