Rhythm of the Rain
[Hook]
Dancing to the rhythm of the rain
How could I go wrong?
If I was ruling my mind
I must have been blind
[VERSE I]
Give me a pen to write with
A girl to spend the night with
I'm not sayin' it's right but
I'm saying it's what I like and
It doesn't seem to matter anymore. What's the difference, anyways?
Tonight is more important than tomorrow and the next day
I leave her on the bed, wander to the living room
Listening to music in my head, this is nothin' new
Yeah it's dreadful the things we do. Yeah
It's dreadful the things that we do
The sad part is, I don't see myself changing anytime soon
I'm dancing to the rhythym of the rain in a monsoon
Even though I hate the effects
I love the affection, love the attention
And hell, it's a fun addiction
Search for it, fiend for it, need more it's like I
Can't get enough and everything I do just leads towards it
It's never worth it
Someone always ends up getting hurt
But I guess I'll learn that later
I'm back in bed with her
[Hook]
Dancing to the rhythm of the rain
How could I go wrong?
If I was ruling my mind
I must have been blind
[VERSE II]
I reevaluate my life. Write it out
Paper and pen relieve the constant need to shout
Maybe if I look close enough, I could discover
What started all of this. Was it my lack of a mother?
Or the fact that the last girl that I had was unfaithful?
A million different reasons could be makin' me hateful
If you are what you eat then I'm pride
Couldn't swallow, so I choked and died inside
I write for me, but I record for you
Make a beat with her in my room, play it on loop
Say I'm trying to find love, and I lost trust
Meanwhile I'm playing hide-n-seek with lust
Throwing wrongs at the wall, tryin' to paint this right
Using matchsticks like firewood, just looking for a light
I walk out the door, to avoid more of the same
Arms out in the street just to feel the pouring rain
[Hook]
Dancing to the rhythm of the rain
How could I go wrong?
If I was ruling my mind
I must have been blind
[VERSE III]
So here I sit, lost in my head
So many things I thought, but never said
I replay the day in my mind every night
And do it right the second time
What'd they say about hindsight?
Write about it
A million different oppurtunities missed for mistresses
Add another name, the list is overcrowded
Every time I speak I have to weigh the options
Decide which key will fit the cage that I'm locked in
Like "No, I can't say that
We might get lost in conversation and wander down a stray path
End up far from where we started and forget the way back
And honestly, I don't know if I can take that."
There goes another friendship, lost in the mess
Try to make it something more but it turns into less
Rain on my face helps me deal with the stress
It heals what these words can't express
[Hook]
