Lyrics

Raining In this House

She said a prison, you know it gets to be a friend
and freedom's too steep for lookin' up
and as I feel my footsteps cling to these old beams
I think I know just what she means

Pre-Chorus

?cause every winter I have seen
that each window had its insulation screen
and every five years I've made sure
that this roof disaster would endure

Chorus

So why's it raining in this house
and who's this feeling that is breathing down my door
I don't think I can live here anymore

Verse 2

I have filled these walls with eight by ten in black and white
to keep the empty spaces filled with pride

Pre-Chorus

And all these images make sure
that I am sealed my fate to be secure

Chorus

So Why's it raining in this house
and who's this feeling that is breathing down my door
No, I can't live here anymore

Bridge

Ooh, I feel the rain wash down my face
Ooh, I feel the lightening strike the walls around this place
and I feel the thunder at my heels
. . . . telling me its time to leave

Final Verse

She said a prison, you know it gets to be a friend
and freedom's too deep to comprehend
and as I walk along these ruins I outgrew
. . . . . I think I thought just what I knew . . .
