Lyrics

I've never felt so alone
I am Mars in a murky sky.
Driven everyone away, you left today.

Livin in a smokescreen,
A nightmare born from a beautiful dream
Once I could play in innocent days,
Now I can't remember

Cause I have been on fire
For what seems like forever
Yet I can't see the sun,
Fear is like barbed wire,
I'm bound, can't fly higher
And I'm longing for the taste of rain.

I think it's gonna rain now,
I think it's gonna rain
I think it's gonna rain, very soon,
mmmmmmmmmmmmm

There must be laughter in the rain

Year and years I sort the tears I cried when born
Years and years of unwept fears don't mean they're gone

So what am I s'pose to do,
I could cry the night away,
Tears for a rainy day.
