Rain

It's morning but dark as night
Inside of this dreary room
The grey sky hangs dark and low
Sealing me into this tomb
Smothered by the putrid air
Under this oppressive gloom

As these tired eyes watch the rain
Trickling down dirty glass
I can't help but to wonder
How it is youth's spent so fast
Recalling discarded thoughts
Of an incoherent past


If the rain falls all day, into another night
And in grieving, my demons I cannot outrun
With dejected heart I know, yesterday could be
The last time I will ever see the sun


So many things have been lost
Down the path of wasted years
All I have ever truly owned
Are the futile hopeless tears
And the creeping through my mind
Of my own malignant fears

As I fall into ruin
And I feel my mind decay
Long forgotten memories
Once securely locked away
Now rise up to haunt my dreams
In an endless grim replay


If the rain falls all day, into another night
And in grieving, my demons I cannot outrun
With dejected heart I know, yesterday could be
The last time I will ever see the sun


And each unbearable day
All the long waking hours
I feel the rot in my chest
As it grows and devours
So all that's left within in me
Is fields of dying flowers

But the rain inside this soul
Is drawn from the raging sea
Tempests that roar and ravage
Rendering all to debris
And soon those storms will destroy
Those wretched flowers and me
