Pouring Rain

(album: The Sky Is Red - 2022)

I'm so sick and sick and tired of the pouring rain
Funny how you crave attention, but ignore your main
I always make it a point to show you real love
But you don't get the point, nah, you'd rather point the blame
I had a couple tense lies since they knew my name
But I was quick to call 'em out, so now no remain
Yeah, I was faithful, faithful as fuck
I ju I just need some pleasure in my life, now ignore the pain (oh)
You claimed those feelings were real, now I know you lie
Every sign you ever showed me was the warning sign
I think what hurts the most is that you don't even try
You said you sorry for it all, trust me, so am I
I tried to turn it all around hoping you would change
And all that did is prove that I too did some stupid things
Every woman's different, fuck that man, they all the same
I'm sick of them, and sick of love, and sick of pouring rain

I don't really wanna be the one that you can always blame
Acting like you're perfect, but you know girl, that you're not a saint
I don't really wanna be the one that you can always blame
Girl, I'm tired of the pouring rain
I just wanna be okay
But you're making it worse for me from day to day
I don't really wanna be the one that you can always blame
I'm tired of the pouring rain

Man, I'm so fucking sick and tired of this pouring rain
Lately, weather ain't my thing
All the water funnels down to me, just like I was a drain
And all of the pain that I have deep inside is thanks to you
And you placed all the blame on everything
And everyone except the truth
Tell me why every time I tried to make things fine
You'd point the blame at me
You never once looked inside your mind
If you did, you'd find you're the one that needs help
Let me breathe, you just wanna see me fail
Darling, please, all this rain has turned to freezing hail
I guess I never expected this twist
You're the one that left after all I did
My heart was torn after all this strain
You caused, you expect me not to get pissed?
I feel I've been robbed
All of the love that I could've given to someone that deserved it
And that's a cost that you can't pay back
So to get payback I hope you get deserted
Permanently, or until you learn that your word is a burden
'Til then I'ma take this personally
I hope that the next time you fly
All the rain that you bring causes extra turbulency
I know I'm sounding so mercilessly
But you can't really think that I'll let you get away scott-free
After you intentionally tried to hurt me, huh?

I don't really wanna be the one that you can always blame
Acting like you're perfect, but you know girl, that you're not a saint
I don't really wanna be the one that you can always blame
Girl, I'm tired of the pouring rain
I just wanna be okay
But you're making it worse for me from day to day
I don't really wanna be the one that you can always blame
I'm tired of the pouring rain

I'm so tired
I'm tired of this pouring rain
Yeah, there's more though, uh

At the start of it all it was promising looking
Leaving me hurt? You promised you wouldn't
You know what they say about deviling Gods
So maybe it's true that God is a woman
Straight from the depths of the fiery gates
Burst out of Hell, just to lie to my face
The sky was blue in the beginning of us
But it turns out that the blue was paint
You would think I wouldn't be tricked
I'm known to be clever and known to be slick
But maybe that's why we totally clicked
Yeah, there was something I couldn't predict
Stupid as hell, stupid as hell
Goddamn, I feel stupid
I got baited, I got hooked, and got catfished by Cupid
I wanted to keep it plus sign, but what mind wants says fuck mine
Can you not be stubborn one time?
Can't we just chill and unwind?
I used to take your orders, why did I think that was fine?
Of course I couldn't quarter, I couldn't grow with this one dime
But ugh, we dead and gone, and in the books is the epilogue
And if somehow we forget it all, I think we'll be much better off
I put up with your put-downs
You might be bad, but I'm good now
What I'm saying with this verse is I'm off your hook now

I just wanna be okay
But you're making it worse for me from day to day
I don't really wanna be the one that you can always blame
I'm tired of the pouring rain
