This Kind of Rain

THIS KIND OF RAIN
by R.D. Snow (Oct 2011)

Broken never fades
Broken stays the same
No one knows a way
To fix so many damaged days
There's no cure for us
Like there's no cure for shame
There's no stopping this kind of rain

Thunder never cheats
Sudden hope fades and turns bleak
Bitterness stains the empty street
And laughter only burns the air we need

No cure for pain
No cure for pain
Not with this kind of rain

Just once I tried to see
If love could comfort me
So I floated out to sea
And there was nothing but grey
The sky was cloudy and still
But I was holding on
I didn't want to leave
The rolling waves
The rolling waves

There's no cure for us
Like there's no cure for shame
There's no stopping this kind of rain

Yet here we are
Still floating
Still trying to find a cure
Every day
