Tap, tap,
tap, tap, tap
The clear glass windows the world
Flat Earth eerie cool
Leveled unlike my mind
Frozen as my thoughts
Stiffening to the dense waters
Who knew they were acidic?
Melting away at my defenses
The last soldier in the trenches
Fighting for what I never believed in
Running into the fray, ready
to take my own life
Dreams of an angry martyr
Blood soaked manifesto
written in spite cuz I couldn't get my shit together
Or get with the program
Tap, tap
Tap, tap, tap
The rain, it creeps across my shoulder
Through invisible walls
Each drop a sweet time, only to be infected by a murky droplet
Tell me to you remember
How sweet it use to be
Trying to keep the balance
but it seems
I cant stand the rain
Against my window
Bringing back sweet memories
I can't stand the rain
it's soaks my mind in times I was high
Cloud 9, spiritually divine, physically inclined
to lift and pull together through any whether
Thinking back I was zombified craving dead presidents
full time mortician I had the sickest sense
And yet I belive other Americans are more of a necrophiliac
Governments the necromancer listening to the King corporation - spread the bile across the continents
this acid rain is wearing me down
I speak only in the sound of silence
Where taking a knee is deemed a riot
Heads in boxes so they can't see the bees disappear
Why are my windows so clear?
Tap, tap,
Tap, tap, tap
I can't stand the rain
Against my window
Bringing back sweet memories
When we were together
If I close my eyes I can visualize your smile
Toy soldier for love
I could only mirror the game just to learn the rules
I've lost future wives by the dime
More change of hands than my grandfather's ties
Pursed lips at strangers who became friends
Only to relapse
Lovers, friends, and family are all the same
People who change whether you like it or not
The only difference is the year and bond
Since time heals, and forgiveness isn't a threat
Then we can all intertwine
Media doesn't help me to believe unfortunately
Tap, tap
Tap, tap, tap
Like a finger to the head
Pointing at my insecurity
Pointing at my insecurity
Pointing at my insecurity
Frozen as my thoughts
Leveled unlike my mind
Flat Earth eerie cool
The clear glass windows the world
Tap, tap, tap
Everyone is out on this sunny day except me
Stiffening to the dense waters of this rain cloud
It's one sound I just can't stand
I can't stand the rain
Against my window
Bringing back sweet memories
rain cloud.
