when it rains these days (demo)

When It Rains These Days Have you ever felt Like you were just watching your life? Staying alive Opting for flight instead of fight The hours pass They assume you have nothing better to do Than to pace in a room Speaking the untrue Lightening in the sky The twilight of the popular mind If the wind-up toys ever remember They made themselves blind And when it rains These days It feels like forever And when you ask When I might feel better I say, “maybe, baby, if we Get a change in the weather.” Have you ever known? You were throwing it away Based on a bill due to pay Tomorrow and yesterday For everything we want Because what we believe we need And compromise is an indignant child With an open mouth to feed Yet if you don’t participate They will find another Who wears your clothes, cashes your check And visits your mother And when it rains These days It feels like forever And when you ask When I might feel better I say, “maybe, baby, if we Get a change in the weather.” Have you ever wondered Who is living in your house? When you see it from the street Inside a shadow of doubt So kick some burnt leaves Into the gutter of your youth We’re all running out of time Which we may accept or refuse The conclusion is in doubt If it remains the same regardless Between gravity, the moon, deep sleep Servants, saints, the faithful and godless And when it rains These days It feels like forever And when you ask When I might feel better I say, “maybe, baby, if we Get a change in the weather.” Coda: All under the same sky Imprisoned by the same why All frozen in time Through a ghost lover eyes
