The choir rang out and filled the halls with a hollow note
There voices were merely a dull hum in the background
Kneeling and looking past my reflection against the marble floor
Almost in a meditative state I welcomed the vacuity I found myself in
It was not until the second time did I realize
Drops of rain water were tapping me on the neck
I was positioned directly under a crack in the basilica's ceiling.
Even in a sanctuary I could not escape what awaited me outside.
Found it quite fitting, actually.
Even though I am inside my life is still being rained on.

Even in a sanctuary I could not escape what awaited me outside.
Found it quite fitting, actually.
Even though I am inside my life is still being rained on.
