Day Rain

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 believe 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.
