Begging for Rain

Lyrics

[Intro] Two, three [Verse 1] 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 [Pre-Chorus] 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 [Chorus] Begging for rain Oh, begging for rain [Verse 2] 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?" [Pre-Chorus] I try my best to not be bitter 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 [Chorus] Oh, waiting for rain Oh, begging for rain [Outro] I keep waitin' I keep waitin' I keep waitin' Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh Ooh
