Healing Rain

They say the rain will heal all things
A flood of tears
Will wash away all pain
But my pillow's soaked
My eyes are red
I don't want to cry
I'd rather be dead.

I see a place so far away
Yet so close to me
I feel the mem'ries
Come flowing down
My heart aches
The ugly gash throbs

The rain's not working
I still am hurting
Oh my God
Why? Why?
I can't stop thinking
I can't stop feeling
But all is numb.

I would think
I would be dry
No more tears left
For me to cry
Yet here they are again
Hauting me
Taunting me

I must sleep
I must dream
But I know I can't
The nightmares will come
And I'll be running
Running from him
Running to them.

They do not stop!
Scene after scene comes
Torturously close
Then I'll wake up
And begin to cry.

The floodgates open
There is no end
I am doomed to weep
Forever.
