Begging For Rain

Two, three The more you wait, the more you break The longer that it takes to undo All the knots that you've been tying On cherry stems and black barbed wire, too You work all day to find religion And end up standing in your kitchen Wondering 'bout the way it's always been I'm a firefighter and I can't stop it They fan the flames higher than rockets And leave you standing on an open plane Begging for rain Oh, begging for rain I feel it all and I can't stop it Wish that I could turn my faucet loose On all my friends who keep on calling Like nothing's wrong and asking me what's new I try my best to not be bitter And give my rage a babysitter Stop waiting for the adults to come home It's a firework and you can't stop it I'm cutting holes in all the pockets Of everyone that's calling me insane Oh, waiting for rain Oh, begging for rain I keep waiting I keep waiting I keep waiting
