Dark Clouds

I found this girl, same age as me
Something 'bout her seemed so sweet
Thought one day we could both meet
And not just chat about what's on TV
Met her brother, when we were a couple
Met two others Before the trouble
Those dark clouds seemed to follow us all
Drown my girl and I started to fall
And I don't know, oooohhhhh
After the suicide, my girl's brother and I
Tried to stay dry from those dark clouds.
Those dark clouds seemed to follow us all
Drown my girl and I started to fall
And I don't know, oooohhhhh
Those dark clouds seemed to follow us all
Drown my girl and I started to fall
And I don't know, oooohhhhh
Mum thinks that I've been doing my homework
Dad don't know I, I haven't left the house all day
We both know that the brother had to go
Held the knife
I shot and looked into my eyes so we both
know oh oh know oh oh
