Needles In The Rain

Faded shoes by the window pane
Your shadow's stitched in drops of rain
We carved our names on broken walls
Two stray ghosts, waiting for the fall

You were the storm inside my skin
A quiet fight no one could win
Hands full of tremors, lips full of dust
You slipped through cracks, like all of us

Needles in the rain, you fade, you fade
Cold rivers wash your name away
No more high, no more pain
Just needles in the rain

Torn bedsheets, fluorescent blues
I heard the echoes, but not the truth
We shared a cage, called it a home
Two shattered mirrors, scared and alone

I wore your laughs like second skin
But light burns out where dark begins
You left your marks on time and bone
And disappeared, like smoke, like stone

Needles in the rain, you fade, you fade
Cold rivers wash your name away
No more high, no more pain
Just needles in the rain, needles in the rain

And maybe now
You're finally clean
Maybe now
You're just a dream

Needles in the rain
Just needles, in the rain
