The tears in my eyes fall Like raindrops on concrete In the middle of a thunderstorm On a muggy summer's day To make myself feel better I imagine I'm out there Becoming drenched in the rain To be able to feel again
The tears in my eyes fell In the second week of August I was up until 4 There was a bad thunderstorm I almost went outside To lay in the field across the street In the pouring rain, amid the thunder That I would be refreshed That would be reborn But also wishing The lightning would strike And end the pain I put you through
I remember looking out my bedroom window, sitting cross-legged at the edge of my bed as the rain roared and splashed against the glass in the heavy wind. The lightning struck second after second and I wondered if maybe it could become your way out from me. That maybe a natural death would make it easier for you. Tears fell down my face and I prayed for the wisdom as I vowed to fix what I'd done.
