No More Rain

My times
looking upon life
and the madness within
each day

 Contemplating life 
wondering why I'm alive
arguing with reason
only to find secrets
knocking upon my door

 Refusing to drop my guard
holding back any tears
that may well up
broken spirits 
may leave frowns
upon your face

Here I look upon life
and gaze upon it
holding back the tears
of all that's witnessed
