It wasn’t the rain that washed away…
Rinsed out the colours of your eyes
Putting the gun down on the bedside table
I must have realized
It wasn’t the rain
That made no difference
And I could have sworn it wasn’t me
Yet I did it all so coldly
Almost slowly
Plain for all to see
Oh c’mon please now
Talk to me
Tell me things I could find helpful
How can I stop now
Is there nothing I can do
I have lost my way
I’ve been losing you
I can still hear our screams competing
You’re hissing your s’s like a snake
Now in the mirror stands
Half a man
I thought no one could break
It wasn’t the rain
That made no difference
Nervously drumming on:Run away
But I want the guilt to get me
Thoughts to wreck me
Preying on my mind
So, please now
Talk to me
Tell me things I could find helpful
For how can I stop now
Is there nothing I can do
I have lost my way
I’ve been losing you
