Lyrics

A thousand pins come pelting down
If you dare stand out to face the rain
You will only find yourself in pain
Much like a shower of self-righteous voices
That hammer through the branches of a brain
Wanting to speak its mind but held back all the time
By this restrain
I thought I was strong
Thought that I could speak my mind about what I believe in
Turns out I was wrong
I rely on numbers and agreement of others
But turns out that most of us do
This rain, this rain
Causes my skin to itch and my bones to clench
I urge to speak but all my reasoning is dried up from the dust of doubtful winds
And every pore is left to dry, left to quench the water denied to me
Oh have you ever spoken words with wandering hands
That leave behind an imprint on each silenced voice?
Please child
Oh stop cowering behind the rooted pillars in the sky
For you and I both know that without land they can’t be tied
Hear me child
For we know that we’re naïve and yet we know we can be wise
But that paradox is never something we should try to hide
Thoughts like iron bars are cast upon me
But where have they come from?
Some plucked from the air and some are rooted in the soil
But if we don’t know which is which
We’ll believe none
We’ll believe none
We’ll believe, believe none
Oh we’ll believe none
Please child
Oh stop cowering behind the rooted pillars in the sky
For you and I both know that without land they can’t be tied
Hear me child
For we know that we’re naïve and yet we know we can be wise
But that paradox is never something we should try to hide
