Pray for Rain - Half Measure

Listen to the rain come down on the roof Someone needs a miracle And I'm the livin' proof Drink Light a cigarette And let me count the ways I can hear a whisper In a haunted house these days She won't set me free She won't let me go She won't leave my soul alone She just leads me to the river As my heart goes down in flames Till she comes back to me I'll have to pray for rain Wrap yourself around me Only you can pull me through Through this desert that I call my heart I'll pray for rain to you To you To you I can see the firelight reflected on her skin She was smooth as alabaster With a taste of salt and sin Slave to a servant A prisoner to a kiss Addicted to temptation And we did not resist Now I can't get free She won't let go She won't leave my soul alone She¹ll just lead me to the river As my heart goes down in flames Till she comes back to me I'll have to pray for rain Wrap yourself around me Only you can pull me through Through this desert that I call my heart I'll pray for rain to you Now I'm a stranger to myself Now my life is not my own She won't leave my soul alone She¹ll just lead me to the river As my heart goes down in flames Till she comes back to me I'll have to pray for rain Wrap yourself around me Only you can pull me through Through this desert that I call my heart I'll pray for rain to you (Lead me to the river) Lead me to the river I'll pray for rain (Lead me to the river) (Pray for rain) She comes back to me again (Lead me to the river) Lead me down Take me down (Lead me to the river) (Pray for rain) Pray for rain (Lead me to the river) (Lead me to the river) (Lead me to the river) (Pray for rain) (Lead me to the river) (Lead me to the river) (Lead me to the river) (Pray for rain) (Lead me to the river)

In deepest hollow of our minds A system failure left behind And their necks crane As they turn to pray for rain And their necks crane Dull residue of what once was A shattered cloud of swirling doves And their eyes change As they learn to see through flames And their necks crane As they turn to pray for rain Their eyes change As they learn to see through flames And their necks crane As they turn to pray for rain Drops on rocks fall fast and fleeting Hearts and wings commence to beating What's unseen with all believing Vision walls fall all receding Vision walls fall all receding Drops on rocks come fast and fleeting Rhythm laws unleash their meaning Usher us into the dreaming Vision walls fall all receding Hearts and wings commence to beating All unending, all completing Vision walls fall fast and fleeting Vision walls fall all revealing Vision walls fall all revealing Vision walls fall all revealing Vision walls fall all revealing In deepest hollow of our minds A system failure left behind Dull residue of what once was A shattered cloud of swirling doves And their eyes change As they learn to see through flames And their necks crane As they pray for rain

Mist covered daylight Hearts wound up so tight Day turning into night Eyes closed tight Opened for the first time New skins for new wine Struggling with the old rhymn Of an outdated hymn First light Hold fast find rest Inside this room of white You'll see in time First light Hold fast find rest Inside this room of white You'll see in time First light Mist covered daylight Hearts wound up so tight Day turning into night Eyes closed tight Opened for the first time New skins for new wine Struggling with the old rhymn Of an outdated hymn First light Hold fast Mist covered daylight Inside Hearts wound up so tight Of white Day turning into night Hold tight Eyes closed tight Hold fast Opened for the first time Inside New skins for new wine Of white Struggling with the old rhymn Of an outdated hymn

Doors are open now Kids fill up the hall Dressing up so well Lining up the wall On a high school dance floor Staring at my shoes I was out of breath Walking up to you With my fathers tie on In 1982 Is it over now Fog clears in the hall All the lights are on Streamers start to fall On a high school dance floor Staring at my shoes I was out of breath Walking up to you With my fathers tie on In 1982 Pushing through the crowd Gotta get to you now On a high school dance floor Staring at my shoes I was out of breath Gotta get to you With my fathers tie on In 1982 Pushing through the crowd Gotta get to you now In 1982

At the start of the end Here comes your white night Got a foot at the edge Looking over the ledge And everything will be just fine Turning inside out Falling out of time If it's the final story It's death and glory And tomorrow the sun will rise And we'll start over again We'll write a different story A tale of guts and glory Got to put up a fight Or fade away When it's all coming toward you Backed into a corner It's time to find a way Don't back down Just keep calm At the turn of the tide Only help you can find Is the will to carry on We'll write a different story A tale of guts and glory I'll leave my past behind me We'll write a different story We'll write a different story A tale of guts and glory I'll leave my past behind me We'll write a different story Start all over again Start all over again Start all over again Start all over again Start all over again Start all over again We'll write a different story A tale of guts and glory I'll leave my past behind me We'll write a different story

Road sign, white lines, long drive And I'm feeling something holding me back Cut ties, no lies inside And I never meant to say that My eyes wide, I'll run and hide Sea side and I never wanna go back A long drive into the night Bold ease, quiet streets, soft sheets Didn't realise what it meant then Heart felt, need help, all or nothing Nothing happened and I fell in My eyes wide, I'll run and hide Sea side and I never wanna go back A long drive into the night I'm fine, but I wish I never said that A long drive into the night My eyes wide, I'll run and hide Sea side and I never wanna go back A long drive into the night I'm fine, but I wish I never said that I'm fine, but I wish I never said that A long drive into the night
