i wrote this for the rain
to sing
bottomless cup
you keep filling me up
dripping
from your coffee canteen
i wrote this for the rain
to sing
because it makes me seem normal
and it makes me feel whole
even
when i'm in a hole
and the water is raging down the street
and my life has been caged inside defeat
someday i hope to feel better
but for now i only feel gone
so i'll lean on the weather
to sing me a song
it doesn't matter if i get wet
or how many inches we get
i know that i'll never forget
the way that it sang
it doesn't matter if it spits or it pours
just as long as cleanses these sores
and i'll remember forever more
the day that it rained
and the water is raging down the street
and my life has been caged inside defeat
someday i hope to feel better
but for now i only feel gone
so i'll lean on the weather
to sing me
