Rain Rain Go Away

Rain, rain, go away

Every time that I'm in pain

A cold hopelessness

Trickling down my window, my wrist

Every drop sends me deeper into despair

Drip, drip, drip

Hooked onto an IV again

The aftermath of overdosing on-

What was it again?

I don't remember

I don't remember how many times I guzzled those pills down.

I don't remember how many times I woke up instead of died.

Where others see redemption and beauty I see red.

You're just mocking my failure to reach my end.

Rain, rain, go away. Maybe then I'll be okay.
