Washing down the drain.

Water
On some days, 
It is but simple drips-
Dropping down the drain.
On other days, 
It is a tsunami....

While outside again did rain

Its Magic
Its pain
Like dancing in the rain
Just letting all the blood and tears

Here the pitter patter of the rain
            going down the drain

So, Tasmanian Rain
Don't fall on the plane.
It's four-eighty in cash.
If you want a hot bath.
That's lost down the drain.
Gone Madly Insane....

Beware Her Spell
With roots in hell,
beware her spell.
Poison to sell,
keeping you well.

Masking the pain,
in no way sane.
Frying the brain,
life down the drain....

Down the Drain
Down the drain,
Like unending rain,
Bringer of much too much,
Unending pain...

Who's responsible?
I don't know...
But down the drain,
I see it go....

We prayed to evade Delta Strain
God dumped on us buckets of rain
Trump spoke to the sky:
"There's no need to cry
My tax returns washed down the drain!"...

Shower Thought
As I stand below the waters
That rain down from above;
I am reborn.
And as they wash over;
The best of me 
Swirls down the drain,
And is forever
Lost....

Another bank going down the drain,

You may laugh, I don't think it's funny.

They tell us all we're not to worry,

But what's happened to all my money?...

Plumbers refuse to make a return visit.
After Medusa washes her hair out well.
Too many eager snake eyes watching them.
Down the drain where monsters dwell....

happiness to sadness
love to hate
security to doubt
everything you've worked
for just down the drain
because someone
makes you second guess
yourself everyday...
