A While

When it rains
Yeah, it rains
We can be so unforgiving
It leaves us unforgiven
We’re the same
We never change
It’s the reason we’re together
We’re just waiting for the weather to pass

I’ve been rolling my days away
Can’t turn out the light that keeps me awake
I’ve been trying to sleep for a while
There’ll be nothing left to talk about
And no one left to hear
In a while
We’ll throw water on these ashes
And these walls will disappear
For a while
We’ve been caught in the cold light of day

Lost our luck
You put it down
Somewhere for safe keeping
So safe, you don’t remember
But it’s okay
We’ll make some more
It’s you that I’ll be needing
Not these books that we’ve been reading too long

I’ve been rolling my days away
Can’t turn out the light that keeps me awake
I’ve been trying to sleep for a while
There’ll be nothing left to talk about
And no one left to hear
In a while
We’ll throw water on these ashes
And these walls will disappear
For a while
We’ve been caught in the cold light of day

I’ve been rolling my days away
Can’t turn out the light that keeps me awake
I’ve been trying to sleep
I’ve been trying to sleep for a while
There’ll be nothing left to talk about
And no one left to hear
In a while
We’ll pour water on these ashes
And these walls will disappear
For a while
We’ve been caught in the cold light of day
