Rain Our Love - Noah Mac

Beauty in the mess she wears

All of her pain was washed away

By stains around her lips and eyelids

Violence

Breathing in the very air that suffocated her youth

And clouded her mind

Like her father

Like her mother

She swallowed her strength

Inhaled herself to the image of another’s face

Wonder why she is how they were

You wonder why she stains her skin

So rain our love down on her, yeah

And rain our love down on her, yeah

Said we all heard something we know

Woah, we were so low

But we’re still holding on

Rain our love down on her, yeah

Beauty is something he never saw

All of the pavement cracked away until the streets

Were given up on, up on the moon

He said he’d listen to sirens down inside the violence

While it made him cry

He decided to fight it

Like his mother

His father would no longer sleep

He came home

Buried his head in the cushions

To scream

So rain our love down on her, yeah

And rain our love down on her, yeah

Said we all heard something we know

Woah, we were so low

But we’re still holding on

Rain our love down on her, yeah

If I could get away from the sound

of someone else’s submission in seconds

I would

Breathe has me pinned down

My heart is open to opening up my secrets

And yet I’m holding onto the words of someone else

That I know I won’t keep around

So rain our love down on her, yeah

And rain our love down on her, yeah

Said we all heard something we know

Woah, we were so low

But we’re still holding on

Rain our love down on her, yeah
