Rain
Let the rain come down today
And wash all of my sins away
My tears fall down my cheeks like rain
Rain to wash away the pain
I feel like a car stuck in a ditch
Cannot move and without a hitch
Spinning my wheels so I can flee
This hole I’m in so to be free
Every day feels the same
Sadness, anger, fear, and shame
Not moving forward or moving back
Spinning a record on the same old track
Days pass by; all’s still the same
Still Playing in this stupid game
Everything gets better is what they say
But in this ditch is where I stay
I feel my patience wearing thin
The more I struggle, the more I sink in
I want to just give up this fight
And waste away in the sunlight
But there is no sun; there is no light
There is no point to keep this fight
All that’s left is just the rain
The rain to wash away the pain
