Must’ve been the rain

Mascara flowing down my cheeks

must've been the rain

Wet shadows floating over this city,

yet nothing to explain

Sparkling eyes behind a curtain of drops,

Amidst all these buildings, is there still hope?

I can't seem to keep my head above the water

To a blurry azure, I can only address a prayer

Splish. Splash.

Heartbeats falling into puddles

Must've been the rain

Yes, the rain has rained too much...
