Our hands clasped together As if they were storm clouds deciding Now was a good time to begin the rain Fear pushed us together It is only fitting that she should pull us apart The storm came down We had been warned When you know a broken heart is coming Doesn't make the breaking any easier
The lighting struck I began my undoing My thread count dwindling Down to four or five strands that you could loop between your teeth As you pulled the words off your tongue Sewing them into my hands with a needle like point
This is leaving No. This is being left I was a swinging door to you All that mattered was that my hinges were oiled It never mattered if the locks were working Because you broke locks even when I gave you the key When you couldn't break the lock you broke the door So I let you kick it in Because the trembling of my hands was for the thought; That if you didn't break the door Then you would of broke me
The storm reigns on It's always raining in my head When you tell me it's just a little water It's not that I'm afraid of getting wet I just can't fathom drowning in someone else's depths That their salty tears would run down my face as if I were a windowpane I cannot feel for you What you will not even watch me go through
The storm rages on My feet are wet I stand barefoot in puddles I would knock on your door You would answer To have the pleasure of slamming the door in my face It would be the same as if you had slapped meΒ Β I turn the other cheek Until I have the courage to turn away Because walking in the rain At least it washes everything away
