Black Sheets Of Rain Lyrics by Bob Mould

Black Sheets of Rain

1990

Checking in every morning
To the sound of steam and caffeine
The sludge in the bottom of the cup
Just like the sludge in the stream
Slag heap keep growing higher
Every morning the sky, it's on fire
And it's only 9:00 AM again
Is there an upside to every downside?
Keep it inside, well it's a downward slide of broken glass
Keeps building in piles and piles and piles
And I don't know
I don't know if the sun ever smiles
Black sheets of rain, yeah
They are following me again
Everywhere I go, everywhere I've been
Following me again
I feel the toxins fill my blood stream
As I'm walking through the parking lot
Over and over and over and over and over
And over, the clouds hanging over
Choking the life out of me
The motto seems to be
"We work in order to be free" yeah
It's the black sheets of rain, yeah
They are following me again
Everywhere I go, everywhere I've been
Following me again
Over and over and over and over and over and over again
Where were you in my hour of need?
I never see the sun stop shining
The clouds roll over the sunlight
Someone stopped the sun from shining
And I stand here, ready to bleed
I never see the sun stop shining
A little rain is all we need
Someone stopped the sun from shining
Where will you be in my darkest hour of need?
I never see the sun stop shining
Where will you be in my darkest hour of need?
Someone stopped the sun from shining
Here it comes again
Here it comes again
Here it comes again
(Over and over and over and over and over and over again)
Here it comes again
(Over and over and over and over and over and over again)
Here it comes again
(Over and over and over and over and over and over again)
