lyrics

I NEVER do this. EVER. So don’t roll your eyes and write it off as “another angsty teen posting dumb song lyrics”. Or do, cause it is, sorta. Except these lyrics aren’t dumb. Whatever. I feel like posting these lyrics, so I am. *shuts up*

—————————–

I hear the drizzle of the rain
Like a memory it falls
Soft and warm continuing
Tapping on my roof and walls

And from the shelter of my mind
Through the window of my eyes
I gaze beyond the rain-drenched streets
To England, where my heart lies

My mind’s distracted and diffuse
My thoughts are many miles away
They lie with you when you’re asleep
And kiss you when you start your day

And the song I was writing is left undone
I don’t know why I spend my time
Writing songs I can’t believe
With words that tear and strain to rhyme

And so you see, I have come to doubt
All that I once held as true
I stand alone without beliefs
The only truth I know is you

And as I watch the drops of rain
Weave their weary paths and die
I know that I am like the rain
There but for the grace of you go I

That poem sounds like something I might write… only more coherent 😛 p.s. I think that last line is messed up, it makes no sense

the last line is a play on the expression, “there but for the grace of G-d go i.” very nice emiwee. dont feel angsty 🙂

this will always be my favorite song of all time. love you em.
