RainI had plans this year But it's already autumn This once upon a time man Is sliding off the rails I was alive About to stretch my wings But seas are black and white Knock the wind out of your sails The mood of the music changed things I'd been looking for a spark But I knew when I stopped singing I'd have no more made my mark Keep the coffee strong Cigarettes on slow burn What's to do but carry on And try a different tack Time and tide are strong I know they wait for no man A flash of dots and dashes Headlong past the glass Tear down walls There's sleight in every chance And in what comes to fall For all things come to pass Life is a will that's wasted Greener on the other side A truth so cold and naked It will not be denied The shining neon lights proclaim All is fake where the human lives And in the darkness no one forgives
