It was a cold day that left me laughing into the clouds
grinning like a fool to everything that you ever told me
it seems like the silence may have offered a better way out
because how often is it now that you say hello and mean it

"why would you want to live in the rain" i was asked once
"It's the only way i can really be sure that i'm alive" i would respond
if only the darkness were a little closer i would wear it like a blanket in the cold of night
it seems everywhere i go is too quiet
faces trying to recognize that glimmer in my eye
they will never comprehend what it is they see
whilst i stand alone on the tops of mountains to sing my song
it's a song of release, a vision of how things should be
a quest for the truth your never told
that one more thing you never think to ask about.
