so long have I lived this life


Rain Clouds Somewhere

I should have seen this coming
But my eyes were blind to it all
It feels like I was waiting for something
Not knowing how far I would fall

Theres always rainclouds somewhere
In a place where the sun doesn’t shine
Why does this world seem so unfair
When I just tried to make you mine

It seems I’m needed by so many
With so little of me to go round
You don’t get change from a penny
And you’re hoping for noise when there’s no sound

So now I’m getting so tired
It’s been coming for quite a while
As I never show the hurt inside
Because I cover it with a smile.

This is so lyrical, I wonder is you have chords for it. A wonderful song/poem.
