Not In the Rain
Well im sitting out on the balcony,
watching it rain,
Would anyone even notice me,
If I cried out in pain?
Oh no, I say
Not in the rain.
I go on day by day,
I put a fake smile on my face.
Does anyone notice the way,
The way I act when im around this place.
Well its just two more whiskey shots.
She just gets mad when she looses at the slots.
Or she comes home and gets drunk instead
and then its just two more blows head.
I wear long sleeves more often than not.
I think about running away a lot.
I have to hide the bruises somehow.
I'm tired of her calling me a useless fat cow.
Well its just two more whiskey shots.
She just gets mad when she looses at the slots.
Or she comes home and gets drunk instead.
And then its just two more blows to the head.
So I scream,
I'm sorry,
Somebody please, oh lord help me.
Her hand falls hard against my face,
I just want to escape this forsaken place.
But this time was different,
It wasn't just two blows to head,
Tonight I could tell, she would leave me dead.
Well now I lay out under the balcony.
No one will hear me,
For I can no longer cry out in pain.
Now they barry me in the rain.
And the reason no one notices you cry in the rain,
Is because the heavens too are crying that day,
And sometimes still you can hear the wind say,
Oh no,
Not in the rain.
