///RAIN///

when it rains it never pours
it only nourishes
the orifice
it's all in your mind, love
all in your mind
it colors the temple
it greens the ground
it grins the frown
cos when it rains it never pours
it might influence a cloud
make it influenza cold
freeze the dew, create the mold
the leaking might make you livid
and i could tell your crib was lived in
drownin' in shadows
while i sat in my cave
curtains drawn, i caved in
to solitude
but you're a solid dude
not like that crude one i met in thai town
who never mentioned he was tied down
that was oh-six
before i met you
doin' skate tricks
in high street wit' my ex
we got to know each other through text
i liked what you were
i liked who you were
i dug how you stared
both silent but neither us cared
we took it slow
i'd neva' done that before
livin' far apart
only made me covet you more
i got your back
and you covered my soul

when it rains it never pours
it only nourishes
the orifice
it's all in your mind, love
all in your mind

whenever my plane landed
always felt like the first time, granted
we're apart for months at a time
relyin' on digital pantomime
we did long distance without reason or rhyme
just that it was love
but fights were explosive
insecurity corrosive
would rather die than be without you and live
even when we were pushed to our limits
and almost had enough
we taught each other how to trust
decided infinity or bust
jealousy and paranoia hushed
when we chose us over lust
us, till infinity or bust

when it rains it never pours
it only nourishes
the orifice
it's all in your mind, love
all in your mind
