YOU SAID, I BLED
YOU MEANT, I WENT
OVERCOMPLICATED
SPENT
LOVE'S A SERIES OF BROKEN SENTENCES
MISCALCULATIONS RECONCILIATIONS
SEDUCTIVE HIGHS
DESTRUCTIVE LOWS
WORDS THAT FLY TOO FAST
FEET THAT MOVE TOO SLOW
WISH I COULD DANCE OUTSIDE THIS WINDOWPANE
OH I WISH I WERE THE RAIN
CHORUS:
'CAUSE IT CAN FALL AS HARD AS IT WANTS TO
GINGERLY DRIP DOWN A LOVER'S FACE
CRY FOR HOURS AND WEEKS ON END AND NEVER
FEEL A BIT OUT OF PLACE
IT CAN FEED A FIELD
PUT OUT A FIRE
AND NEVER FEEL THE PAIN
OH I WISH I WERE THE RAIN
I WISH I WERE THE RAIN
I WISH I WERE THE RAIN
I WISH I WERE THE RAIN
DON'T SPEAK, I'M WEAK
YOU CRY, I LIE
OVERCOMPENSATION
WHY?
OUR ARSENAL OF HOPE HAS BEEN BLED DRY
DON'T YOU WISH THAT YOU COULD LIVE OUTSIDE THE INSANE
DON'T YOU EVER WISH FOR A FREE REIGN
'CAUSE IT CAN FALL AS HARD AS IT WANTS TO
GINGERLY DRIP DOWN A LOVER'S FACE
CRY FOR HOURS AND WEEKS ON END AND NEVER
FEEL A BIT OUT OF PLACE
IT CAN FEED A FIELD
PUT OUT A FIRE
AND NEVER FEEL THE PAIN
OH I WISH I WERE THE RAIN
I WISH I WERE THE RAIN
I WISH I WERE THE RAIN
I WISH I WERE THE RAIN
BRIDGE:
THE BLISTERING, TWISTED
HARD FISTED BLOWS
HAVE DROWNED THE ONCE FERVENT GLOW
'CAUSE IT CAN FALL AS HARD AS IT WANTS TO
GINGERLY DRIP DOWN A LOVER'S FACE
CRY FOR HOURS AND WEEKS ON END AND NEVER
FEEL A BIT OUT OF PLACE
IT CAN FEED A FIELD
PUT OUT A FIRE
AND NEVER FEEL THE PAIN
OH I WISH I WERE THE RAIN
I WISH I WERE THE RAIN
I WISH I WERE THE RAIN
I WISH I WERE THE RAIN
