Lyrics
I've been baptized, circumvented, moralized, infantilized and schooled
Gaslit and dog-whistled, overheated, melted down and cooled
I've been stood up, worked over, demagogued
And dropped on my head
But if my story's almost written, yours is still yet to be said
Here comes that rain, you've got my eyes
Push past this pain, into the light of sunrise
Here comes that rain
I was pleased by the progress, spun in time to see the bubble burst
Woke up the watch dog, just too late to recognize the worst
I've seen daylight and darkest hours with real tears
Right before the dawn
Beaten down by populists so take back the hill that you'll live on
Here comes that rain, you've got my eyes
Push past this pain, into the light of sunrise
Here comes that rain
The water keeps rising and no one seems to pay it any mind
The water keeps rising and your body's turning it to wine
Beat an unbeaten path, stomp your own grapes of wrath
And cut the time it takes to make some sense of all this pain in half
I've had your eyes locked on mine
And I couldn't hide the plot that we lost
So rage against or die by and rewrite this poem at all cost
Here comes that rain, you've got my eyes
Push past this pain, into the light of sunrise
Here comes that rain, rain, rain, rain
