Jeff Black - Rain lyrics

rate me

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
