Downpour

Eyes low
Colorless in tone
Swaying back and forth
They begin to roll

Here lies the burden each of us carries
So evident, staring you in the face
Systematically peeling skin
Reprimand and lacerate

All of our failures acknowledged in time
I guess I'm face to face with all of mine

Webs of fractures and bodily schisms
Slowly eating and splintering
Circling closer, frail hymns draw near
The croon of death is all I hear

Offset in dialect
Unearthing the abscess

Watch it all pour out
Before I disappear
Witness adherence

I just keep falling into the earth
I just keep falling into the earth
I just keep falling

I was searching for the sky
I could never stop the rain
I would always close my eyes
I was searching for escape
I was lying to myself
I could never stop the rain
I was lying to myself
I could never stop the rain
I could never stop the rain
I could never stop the rain
I could never stop the rain
I could never stop the rain
