The Rain Keeps Falling

I tried to be brave but I hid in the dark
I sat in that cave and I prayed for a spark
To light up all the pain
That remained in my heart
And the rain kept falling

Down on the roof of the church where I cried
I could hear all the laughter
And love and I tried
To get up and get out but a part of me died
And the rain kept falling down

Well I'm scared if I open myself to be known
I'll be seen and despised and
Be left all alone
So I'm stuck in this tomb and
You won't move the stone
And the rain keeps falling

Somewhere the sun is a light in the sky
But I'm dying in North Carolina and I
Can't believe there's and end to
This season of night
And the rain keeps falling down falling down
Falling down

There's a woman at home and
She's praying for a light
My children are there and they
Love me in spite
Of the shadow I know that they see in my eyes
And the rain keeps falling

I'm so tired of this game, of these songs
Of the rote
I'm already ashamed of the line I just wrote
But it's true and it feels like
I can't sing a note
And the rain keeps falling down falling down
Falling down

Peace, be still peace, be still

My daughter and I put the seeds in the dirt
And every day now we've
Been watching the earth
For a sign that this death will
Give way to a birth
And the rain keeps falling

Down on the soil where the sorrow is laid
And the secret of life is igniting the grave
And I'm dying to live but
I'm learning to wait and the rain is falling

Peace, be still peace, be still

Peace i just want to be new again
Be still
I just want to be closer to You again peace
Lord, I can't find the song be still
I'm so tired and I'm always so wrong
I need peace peace
Help me be brave tonight be still
Jesus, please help me out
Of this cave tonight peace
I've been calling and calling be still
This rain just keeps falling peace
I've been calling and calling be still
But this rain just keeps falling and falling
Peace is it You
Be still is it You
Peace is it true
Be still is it You
Peace, peace
