Inside its burning
Inside I'm hurting
Please someone let it rain
Calm my burning pain
Calm my insolent thoughts
Please let it rain

Outside I'm hidden
Outside I've ridden
The imperfections from beneath
I've made a mask
To cover up the past
Please pull off this sheath

Can't you see I'm hurting
Can't you see It's burning
Why won't you let it rain?

I've asked for rain you've brought a storm

Please make it stop I never asked for a thunderstorm

Inside its pouring
Inside I'm restoring
All the memories you've washed away
