Rain

Bed clothes, why am I in bed clothes?
Watching out the window
Watching what I don't know
On the fire escape now
Hands they start to shake now
Ready for the rail to break now
And I'm awake at last awake
Cursing, rattling and cursing
Go ahead and do your worst then
Your worst that I can take
Oh let the rain fall down
And wash this world away
Oh let the sky be grey
Cause if its ever gonna get any better
Its gotta get worse for a day
Morning, where am I this morning?
Now its really pouring
Crawling up this shore
And I walk the neighborhood
And umbrella does no good
And I guess its in my blood
Couldn't stop the flood
Drowning, everything is drowning
Go ahead and take the town
The town is yours to take
Oh let the rain fall down
And wash this world away
Oh let the sky be grey
Cause if its ever gonna get any better
Its gotta get worse for a day
Calling, calling, falling, falling
Grab on my guitar
And paddle with both my arms
Headed where the voices are
I'll end up far so far away
Oh let the rain fall down
And wash this world away
Or let the sky be grey
Cause if its ever gonna get any better
Its gotta get worse for a day
Its gotta get worse for a day
Its gotta get worse for a day
Its gotta get worse for a day
I know
Its gotta get worse for a day
