Lost Umbrella
Will Stetson
Leaving soon, pleading with you
Right before the rain will soak me through
Now I know, if there’s something so far from my view, I can’t hold it, though I wanted to
Ah, always, hands stay dripping with rain
Never gained a sense of things I had to face
What I’d end up dropping someday
The way the drizzle knows to soak my eyes within its flow
My breath is dampened ‘till it chokes my throat within its hold
Now just to burden my life with all these shapeless things I find
Seems it might be alright, it’s so easy in my mind
There’s a shame that I could not just face
Things that make clouds appear within my gaze
They shade with the haze of the rain
I wanna just escape, umbrella still raised
So
Leaving soon, pleading with you
Right before the rain will soak me through
They could still try to kill me while I have no view, and there’s nothing at all I can do
Letting go never came, my hands stay dripping with rain
Never gained a sense of things I had to face
What I’d end up dropping someday
I'm only passing time and numbing my hands with ice
And I don’t like that sweet I never tried
From deep inside, I turn my eyes from the sight of mess I find outside
Please just take me away, any place
To a place in which a flower never fades
Within my brain, never knowing what’s sane, now I hear just how my heart breaks
That bitter rain that knows to soak my eyes within its flow
My dampened breath is low, beats against my cheeks as I go
While still not seeming to find an understanding in my mind
I will try filling lines deep inside my heart still hides
Before forming lakes of puddles made every day
Let’s raise umbrellas as we shade the world from rain
Hey
Leaving soon, pleading with you
Right before the rain will soak me through
Now I know, if there’s something so far from my view, I can’t hold it, though I wanted to
Ah, always, hands stay dripping with rain
Never gained a sense of things I had to face
Those things that I’d drop here someday
Leaving soon, pleading with you
Right before the rain will soak me through
They could still try to kill me while I have no view, and there’s nothing at all I can do
Letting go never came, my hands stay dripping with rain
Wanna gain a sense of things I had to face
What I’d end up losing someday
The way the drizzle knows to soak my eyes within its flow
My breath is dampened ‘till it chokes my throat within its hold
Still, I'm not seeming to find an understanding in my mind
It’s all mine, all the fault that my broken heart will just die
