I fell in love with a sadness that poured
quietly down around me like
a cold, yet peaceful rain
It burned my aching wounds,
Reminded me of their existence,
Forced me to feel the sting of them
all over again
Like the eerie hum of a depressing song,
to hurry your tears when you're on the
verge of breaking
I felt clean and honest for the first
time since I got those scars
I was exposed and shaking,
Yet comfortable
So comfortable that I lied in pain
beneath the sky's cry for six years
Hardly living
I think I needed the rain to wash the
blood from my skin but once the crimson
trickled down through the
gutter, I should've risen
And for way too long I just... didn't
Now I'm too calm
It's too easy to be here;
Just waiting on the sunshine
Listening to the wrong songs
Face down in wet grass
I know that the world turns
I know that our lives change
That nothing stays the same
Well when does the storm break?
Cause I'm weak
And I'm exhausted
And I'm ready for a change
In this weather pattern
Yeah,
I'm ready for a change
*I'm ready to change
