Ben Gertner - Rain Lyrics

My heart is beating in my brain
And I feel afraid
The way I'm made
Isn't strong enough today

I feel it in my face
Before the rain comes down
And when it comes
I start to drown

The streets sing back at me
Pavement creaks beneath my feet
As I walk, I dream
I am lucid, I am clean

I am trying to find a way
To keep on falling down
Creating sounds to make me unafraid
I don't wanna hit the ground
I just wanna play it loud

Streets sing back at me
Pavement creaks beneath my feet
As I walk, I dream
I am lucid, I am clean

I am an island
The plans I make
Change like the seasons in my head
The air breaks
The storm is raging
Feel it bringing me back from the dead

When I die, I'll settle down
To a small town on the countryside
Where the people are nice
And things are finally quiet
I'll have that little white fence
Two and a half kids
And I won't have to fear losing either
When I die, I'll be happy to be here

The streets sing back at me
Pavement creaks beneath my feet
As I walk, I dream
I am lucid, I am clean

I am an island
The plans I make
Change like the seasons in my head
The air breaks
The storm is raging
Feel it bringing me back from the dead

I wouldn't pray for blue skies all the time
I wouldn't ask the sun would always be shining
I wouldn't ask for a silver lining
Other than the rain would come
Once and awhile
