Rain
|
|
I have paid the piper
|
and I have done my time
|
the little voice inside my head
|
grows unspeakably unkind
|
like a diamond on a grinder
|
like a hammer on a pearl
|
like a big chain around my brain again
|
fast and tied to the tilt a whirl
|
oh how I long for vengeance
|
in this song of tragedy
|
enchanted days of witness
|
to the virgin harmony
|
ever since september
|
my heart has been bone dry
|
and the bastards they should have killed me
|
when they made my angel cry
|
the watermark is waiting
|
I will never be the same
|
|
I'll be rain
|
falling all around you again
|
god forgive me for my sin
|
but I won't be satisfied
|
until the sun comes shining through
|
|
there's a snake down in the manger
|
there's a rat in the baby's bed
|
I'll be the one from now on
|
to put dreams in their head
|
through thick mud and bad blood
|
we'll crawl through eden's gate
|
trying to recapture
|
what they took from us that day
|
|
