James Blant – Tears and Rain 0

How I wish I could surrender my soul
Shed the clothes that become my skin
See the liar that burns
within my needing.
How I wish I'd chosen
darkness from cold.
How I wish I screamed out loud
Instead I found no meaning.

I guess it's time I run far far away
Find comfort in pain.
All pleasure's the same.
It just keeps me from trouble,
Hides my true shape like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they say
But I'm not here for trouble.
It's more than just words
It's just tears and rain.

How I wish I could walk through
The doors of my mind
Hold memory close at hand
Help me understand the years.
How I wish I could choose between
Heaven and hell.
How I wish I'd save my soul
I'm so cold from fear.

I guess it's time I run far far away
Find comfort in pain.
All pleasure's the same,
It just keeps me from trouble,
Hides my true shape like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they say
But I'm not hear for trouble.
It's more than just words
It's just tears and rain.
