This is for the rainy days. The heavy days, Blanketed under a dark silver sky. This is an image of Timeless days. Where both dawn and dusk Fail to exist, Because the gray never went away. This is the light drizzle Painting your glasses With tiny cloudy droplets That blur-out your vision And makes the next step a mystery,, As you pray                   For a chance of sunshine. This is for the helpless days. Lonely days. Where with every battle Pits you against the world.      And should you lose,      Or should you win,      Your victory is heard             by only two ears. These are the words for the Mouse-like people. The great number of quiet strugglers Who say yes to the fat cat                                   By Instinct! So they won't be the meat Of someone else's meal.           \    \     \ But this is not to cast you down. Not a giant- making pinching gestures With people sized fingers. This is a challenge! A day to reach up into Your oppressive heavens. Cast aside the disciplinary Blockade and- Breathe. Breathe in the tastes Of a life worth living. Of the courage to be on your own feet. And this is an urgency. This is an urging that All the doormat people Sweep out from the heavy feet, The ones you welcome for trampling. Because|                -You know exactly what you're                  Missing

This Is For Rainy Days (Full)
This is for the rainy days. The heavy days, Blanketed under a dark silver sky. This is an image of Timeless days. Where both dawn and dusk Fail to exist, Because the gray never went away. This is the light drizzle Painting your glasses With tiny cloudy droplets That blur-out your vision And makes the next step a mystery,, As you pray                   For a chance of sunshine. This is for the helpless days. Lonely days. Where with every battle Pits you against the world.      And should you lose,      Or should you win,      Your victory is heard             by only two ears. These are the words for the Mouse-like people. The great number of quiet strugglers Who say yes to the fat cat                                   By Instinct! So they won't be the meat Of someone else's meal.           \    \     \ But this is not to cast you down. Not a giant- making pinching gestures With people sized fingers. This is a challenge! A day to reach up into Your oppressive heavens. Cast aside the disciplinary Blockade and- Breathe. Breathe in the tastes Of a life worth living. Of the courage to be on your own feet. And this is an urgency. This is an urging that All the doormat people Sweep out from the heavy feet, The ones you welcome for trampling. Because|                -You know exactly what you're                  Missing
