It's Raining Somewhere Else

Don’t you know that you could tell me anything
And I would tell not another soul
In the end, when the laughter’s gone
I think we both feel quite alone

I can tell by the way that you speak to me
That there is so much that you might know
Even so, it won’t fill the emptiness
That chills you to the bone

Now and then, when you can find the company
Somehow it’s always behind locked doors
Making promises you don’t want
Because you’ve made them once before

Don’t you feel like you’re a mess sometimes?
I hope you know that it’s okay
Searching endlessly for your distraction
Just to make it through the day

You don’t have to have everything
Sorted out right now
Just take your time

Don’t you know that you could tell me anything
And I would tell not another soul
Go ahead, you can make your threats at me
But one day, I’ll be gone

Quietly, you can make your confessions
Through the string of truth as you speak in jest
I can hold it within my heart
Till I am finally laid to rest
