Water and Rain

from Season of the Moon by Michael McGuire

/

lyrics

Over my head there’s a sky full of rain, That shows no mercy to this desert plain, Here in my heart there’s an ocean of tears, That ebbs and flows with the tide of years, I’m driven by weakness; certain of doubt, What I can't live with; I just can't live without, Now the sun is a shadow; this dream is a curse, I’d give it up for the truth but that could be worse.

Water and rain, Can you explain, Can you show me the difference; can you ease my pain, It seems to me you can drown in either, Water and rain.

Now the day is hunting me but I’m hiding in the night, I’m sure you're wrong but I’m not sure who’s right, In the theater of the mind there’s just another rerun, There’s a crescent moon above a setting sun, I think this medicine works but the doctor’s sick, He said death is a magician and life is just a trick, Now I’m lost in repetition but it’s never the same, Tell me what do you win if you win this game.

Water and rain, Can you explain, It’s drowned my mind; it’s flooded my brain, But you can learn to swim in either, Water and rain.

Over my head there’s a rainbow, Under my feet there’s a puddle, Oh the difference is quiet, Oh the difference is subtle, Now I feel the mercy, Now I see the light.

Water and rain, No need to explain, Call me crazy before I go insane, Seems my thirst can't tell the difference between, Water and rain.
