The Rain
This heart can’t beat
Blood through these veins
The traitor that’s inside of me
Takes the oxygen away
And these eyes can’t see
Can’t see reality
The truth is tainted by the lies
But they’re all the same to me
I walked straight ahead
With blindfolded eyes
And ended up somewhere I shouldn’t
Have, can’t say I’m surprised
Then I searched for me
Of course in vain
Run in circles a million times
Before I say I lost my way
I was hoping god would see
That someone needs to save me
But nothing’s changed
So I look up to the sky
And pray
Chorus:
Let the rain wash away
The dark
Let it flood
These thoughts from my head
Let the rain
Seep into me
And drown what I have become
Let the rain
Let the rain
Save me
These words aren’t mine
But from my lips they’ll spill
I’d like to say I’ll bite my tongue
But I know I never will
Cuz under influence
Of conformity
I can’t be held liable for my
Thoughts, Actions or speech
Yes I was hoping god would see
That I really need some saving
But nothing’s changed
So I look up to the sky
And pray
Chorus:
Let the rain wash away
The dark
Let it flood
These thoughts from my head
Let the rain
Seep into me
And drown what I have become
Let the rain
Let the rain
Save me
(bridge)
Sometimes it’s harder to be weak
To let yourself be saved
But I’m putting my hands up
I’m letting go
Won’t something save me
Chorus:
Let the rain wash away
The dark
Let it flood
These thoughts from my head
Let the rain
Seep into me
And drown what I have become
End the pain
Let the rain
Save me
