When it Rains
October 3, 2009
When it rains
It washes away
What’s wet and what
The wetness stained
And drowns what came
To cause me pain
And keep me up
All night and day
And possibly take
My life away
19 horses and 19 men
Knocking on my window pane
And when it rains
It tells the day
No one can come out to play
And that makes the sun say
“I must now dry up the day
And save whats left to be saved”.
And when I look
I have to say
That what I see I can’t explain
What was flooded yesterday
Is now completely drained
And when I say
The sun has came
To shine its rays
On my troubled face
And liven what relentless rain
Had no remorse and washed away
-19 horses and 19 men
Knocking on my window pane.

This seems beautiful and random, I can't quite get my head around it. I guess that's what I've been meaning to say...

Maybe....well, breaking my wrist is a stretch, I just sprained it, but the "or"'s significate the things that have befallen me on account of my stupid headache.
