Red Cap Under the Rain

[Кіріспе] [Instrumental: lone high tremolo riff, bass shadow, then low bass slide and clipped chug; drums and strings enter] [Куплет 1] You said the load was steady, checked the gauge twice I watched the training dummy shift beneath the lights Then one hard lurch, and the trainee slipped below The bin wall swallowed the call before it reached the door [Қайырма] Hold the line, keep the tube in place Hand over hand, we’re bringing him to the surface The auger hums beneath the grain Farmer, that level’s dropping—don’t let it change [Куплет 2] I rigged the rescue tube with both hands shaking Found the anchor, pulled the strap, kept the angle straight You called the level falling; i called the time We worked in silence while the grain moved inside [Қайырма] Hold the line, keep the tube in place Hand over hand, we’re bringing him to the surface The auger hums beneath the grain Farmer, that level’s dropping—don’t let it change [Guitar solo] [Instrumental: harmonized lead guitar solo over the full riff] [Қайырма] Hold the line, keep the tube in place Hand over hand, we’re bringing him to the surface The auger hums beneath the grain Farmer, that level’s dropping—don’t let it change [Аутро] The tube is clear, the trainee’s out The auger stops; we count the breaths You watch the gauge, i watch the door No one works alone in here
