Cosmic Rain

The clouds circle above
Like an animal in pain
I look up at the sky
And my face feels drops of rain
The world disappears
And I feel myself collapse
The rain does not fall from the clouds because
The clouds are gone, it falls perhaps
From the stars
From the moon and the sun,
From the planets spread out across the universe
From the cosmos above the Earth
I can feel the cosmic rain
Pouring down on us
Carrying specs of cosmic dust
Someone from above crying tears of cosmic rain
A gift from Andromeda
Our flesh absorbs every drop
For though we know not what it does,
Nor if it causes us harm
We will stand beneath the sky for an eternity until the rain stops
We’re frozen in a moment
All time stands still
The human race has lost
All our sense of free will
The stars have taken over
They’ve silenced our brains
The cosmos now control us
With a downpour
Of cosmic rain
Pouring down on us
Carrying specs of cosmic dust
Someone from above crying tears of cosmic rain

Time and time again
I get it wrong
Oh-oh ho-oh
And once I get it right
She wants to hear
A different song
Oh no
I’m giving away my shot
Whether I like it or not
I’m a romantic but I’m hopeless
Woah oh oh
And everybody knows
I’m still breathing but it’s hopeless
Woah oh oh
Can’t even see
What I’m supposed to be
This isn’t how I should act
It’s not who I should be
No oh oh
But when I try and change
I turn into someone
Who isn’t me
It’s what the world wants to see
I’m giving away my shot
Whether I like it or not
I’m a romantic but I’m hopeless
Woah oh oh
And everybody knows
I’m still breathing but it’s hopeless
Woah oh oh
Can’t even see
What I’m supposed to be
I’m giving away my shot
Whether I like it or not
I’m a romantic but I’m hopeless
Woah oh oh
And everybody knows
I’m still breathing but it’s hopeless
Woah oh oh
Can’t even see
What I’m supposed to be

Hush now love
The answers aren’t far away
Hush now love
It’s written in the stars today
Hush now love
The answers aren’t far away
Hush now love
It’s written in the stars today
Hush now love
The answers aren’t far away
Hush now love
It’s written in the stars today
Hush now love
The answers aren’t far away
Hush now love
It’s written in the stars today

(Here comes the rain again)
(Falling like every time before)
(Here comes the rain again)
(Falling like every time before)
Here comes the rain again
Falling like every time before
Here comes the rain again
Falling like every time before
Here comes the rain again (Hush now love)
Falling like every time before (The answers aren’t far away)
Here comes the rain again (Hush now love)
Falling like every time before (It’s written in the stars today)
