Black Rain
Creeper Lyrics

At war with the world, yet worlds apart
We are in a constant struggle with the outside world, but we are disconnected from it

To return is a promise I can't make
I cannot guarantee that I will come back

You see, we together have The Callous Heart
Our hearts have become desensitized due to the pain we have inflicted on one another

Because Callous Hearts don't break
Our cold hearts cannot be broken

Do you recall when you'd lay on my chest?
Remember when we were close and affectionate?

Now where you once slept just lays such an emptiness
Now there is only an empty space where you used to be

We're going through this phase where we feel nothing
We are experiencing an emotional numbness

Making out with 'loneliness'
We are seeking comfort in our own solitude

Cheating on each other with 'regret'
We are both dwelling on our past mistakes and this is causing us pain

We're so forgettable and miserable
We are unhappy and insignificant

I wrote for you a chorus to end it all
I created a song to express our misery and bring closure to our relationship

And in the rain, I screamed your name
I expressed my pain and longing for you

So darling, just you shut your pretty mouth
Please stop talking and causing me more pain

I know I mean nothing to you now
I know that you no longer care for me

Do you recall when he had you undressed?
Remember when you were intimate with someone else?

So young and so blessed, a letterbomb with no address
You were young and inexperienced, a ticking time bomb with unknown consequences

You were young and nameless, guilty but blameless
You were unaware of the consequences of your actions and cannot be fully at fault

We woke the neighbors screaming at the weather once again
Our emotions have caused us to act irrationally and disturb those around us

You wanna know why it rains?
We ask why we are experiencing such emotional turmoil

And all the colours bleed in on themselves and I'm left so cold
Everything seems to blend together and my heart feels frosty

When all I wanted was a hand to hold to watch the world explode
All I wanted was someone to share life experiences with, even the destructive ones

I was all of the things that you always dreamt and then never did
I represented all the dreams and aspirations you had but never pursued

All of the lives that you could have led but then never lived
You could have had a fulfilling and exciting life, but instead settled for mediocrity

The midnight kids
The restless, troubled youth who have yet to find their place in the world
