I stood in the rain today
And i looked to the sky
I stood in the rain today
And i let the drops hit me
Soak through my clothes / and wet my soiled skin
I stood in the rain today
I stood in the rain
I stood under the rain today
The drops made their way down through my hair
Down my face through my lashes
Making black trails as they went...
Eroding anxiety
Through all the contours of my skin
Eroding years of pressure
Hidden in the stone mountain of my face
I made a face to the rain today
I cried at the sight of the clouds
I laughed at the sound
Of the drops on the dry earth
The water digging a ditch
It filled me with temptation
A sudden urge and resolve to kick up all the bad feelings
Throw them down and be on my way
I said i stood in the rain today
I stood in the rain
I could start a war with a pen and paper
Then i could end that war with a handful of empathy
I could start a war with a couple of evil thoughts
Then i could end that war with a dance in the rain
Keep going back to the rain...
