Jack Savoretti - Blackrain lyrics

rate me

A dirty rain is falling at my feet

And people walk pretending not to see

And I don't know why everybody wants what they don't need

It's everybody's world

One man's grave

And heaven only knows what's hidden up his sleeve

Using diamonds

Clubs and spades he'll win your heart and build a house of cards

And build a house of cards

'Till we all fall down

And we all fall down

Watch us all fall down like black rain

The building's getting tall

Watch it scrape the sky

Can't see the stars at all through the city lights

When the fuel runs low who cares if we're getting high

It's not the things you know but the things that you deny

That make us all fall down

And we all fall down

Watch us all fall down like black rain

Like black rain

Like black rain

A dirty rain is falling at my feet

And people walk pretending not to see

And I don't know why everybody wants what they don't need

Well we all fall down

*Till* we all fall down

Watch the oil fall down like black rain

Like black rain

(It's not always gonna rain)

(It's not always gonna rain)

(It's not always gonna rain)
