The Rain

The light of day today,

Is so heavy and dream-like.

Makes me feel hazy,

Sweetly lazy.

It has a weird effect on me,

It makes me feel good and wrong.

Such funny ways that I've got.


It speaks about you and me,

Hidden in a room, naked, nothing at all but us.

And I want to be there, I do.

Watching the world drip, in our burning embrace.

The rain washes my pain away.


It speaks about the despair I felt at 15,

Or maybe before even,

And how the rain lifted the weight,

With its oppressive pretty greys.

The rain washes my pain away.


The rain lulls me into your arms,

It promises a Sun.

The rain pushes me places,

Everything I am,

or everything I've been?
