I raise my head
With mournful tread
Ignore the pain
And listen to the rain
Let the darkness surround my soul
And in my mind
The night consumes me whole
Keep the insanity at bay
For at least another day
Never wander on your own
Because I'll find you all alone
And when my mind begins to crack
I know that there's no going back
So I push away the strife
And try to live a normal life
But when my night is turned to day
My shattered heart is easy prey
Try to ignore the pain
And listen to the rhythm in the rain
I hold the weight of the world
All the mysteries unfurled
My soul is caught within the thrall
And in my mind
Darkness overwhelms it all
There is no place for me to hide
There is no way to turn the tide
So I just ignore the pain
And listen to the sound of the rain
For within this rain I hear
The faintest echoes of my fear
I raise my head and once again
Tread the path I have chosen
And listen to my heartbeat in the rain
