The Rain Lyrics by Harrison Lemke

More Postcards from Purgatory

2015

[Verse 1]
The rain came to drown us like rats in our holes
Like hellfire to burn up the chaff in our souls
The rain came in curtains to close off the scene
To kill off all our old parts and wash our painted faces clean
The rain came and the streets turned to rivers in its wake
And the waves coiled around us to bear us away
[Chorus]
You're always starting up when I'm shutting down
Shutting down, shutting down
You're always pulling up what I'm pushing down
Pushing down, pushing down
You're always staying put when I'm skipping town
Skipping town, skipping town
You're always moving on when I'm sticking around
Sticking around, sticking around
