Day by day, it takes its hold, Divides its cells a thousandfold, And makes your blindness seem perverse. Out of sight and out of mind, Are deadly traits when they're combined, But it's easier that way. Sit and watch the world go by, While all the problems multiply, With nothing left to do but pray. I am the rain, Falling down to cover you. Wish me away, But I'm here for your own good. I am the storm, Sent to wake you from your dream. Show me your scorn, But you'll thank me in the end. These amenities are nice, But there is need for sacrifice, You must lose so you may gain. It's too easy to malign, The implements that steal our time, But it's we who are to blame. Fill your pockets while you can, And try to keep the upper hand, The voice of reason sounds so shrill. Surround yourself with all you own, Work your fingers to the bone, And happiness evades you still. I am the rain, Falling down to cover you. Wish me away, But I'm here for your own good. I am the storm, Sent to wake you from your dream. Show me your scorn, But you'll thank me in the end. Too eager to appease, You've lost the forest for the trees, And it really is a shame. It is such a sorry sight, When you evaluate your life, You've only got yourself to blame. I am the rain, Falling down to cover you. Wish me away, But I'm here for your own good. I am the storm, Sent to wake you from your dream. Show me your scorn, But you'll thank me in the end.
