[Verse 1]
There's a storm on the streets, but you still don't run
Watching and waiting for the rain to come
And these words wouldn't keep you dry
Or wipe tears from an open sky
But I know, but I know, but I know I'm right

[Pre-Chorus]
I won't let you drown
When the water's pulling you in
I'll keep fighting, I'll keep fighting
The rain's going to follow you wherever you go
The clouds go black and the thunder rolls
And I see lightning, I see lightning

[Chorus]
When the world surrounds you, I'll make it go away
Paint the sky with silver lining
I will try to save you, cover up the grey
With silver lining

[Verse 2]
Now there's no way back from the things you've done
I know it's too late to stop the setting sun
You see the shadows in the distant light
And it's never gonna be alright
And you know, and you know, and you know I'm right
[Pre-Chorus]
And I won't get left behind
When the walls come tumbling in
I'll keep climbing, I'll keep climbing
The rain's going to follow you wherever you go
The clouds go black and the thunder rolls
And I see lightning, I see lightning

[Chorus]
When the world surrounds you, I'll make it go away
Paint the sky with silver lining
I will try to save you, cover up the grey
With silver lining

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
When the world surrounds you, I'll make it go away
Paint the sky with silver lining
I will try to save you, cover up the grey
With silver lining

[Outro]
Silver, silver, silver, silver
Silver, silver, silver lining
Silver, silver, silver, silver (Paint the sky, paint the sky)
Silver, silver, silver, silver
Silver, silver, silver, silver
Silver, silver, silver, silver
