Tears in Rain

[Verse 1] Let me pour out my bleeding heart It was all fucked up from the start I was just try'na play my part And they say it ain't the winning that counts It's the taking part But when you lose maintainings hard And if you choose to complain they laugh At your pain so you pick up the pad Put the needle to the vein It's the same old same I've seen it all before And I'm sure that I'll see it again Strange Days When people act in strange ways And end up locked in strangeways (Manchester Prison) For the way they behave The sky is always a shade of grey That's why I'm try'na make my pay And escape the UK It's a love-hate relationship No doubt - do I wanna stay? Nah, I wanna break out Cause the rain clouds overhead Got me feelin dread Got me feelin like I'm already dead Nothing left to lose If it was left to you, would you ever try to step in my shoes And finish my work If I was under the dirt There's only so many bridges, that's another that's burnt Another confirmed my fears I've been feelin the hurt for years Dealin' with my people and my peers And the cries for help Fallin on deaf ears I guess everything must end here And it must end now Shut, shot cause' I'm closin down I'm broken down I hope that there's no one around [Hook] To see my Tears in rain, dealing with the years of pain I'm still here tryin' to maintain Still here tryin' to maintain It's the same old same yo it's always the same It don't change Tears in rain, dealing with the years of pain I'm still here tryin' to maintain Still here tryin' to play the game Still rollin the dice Gambling not knowing the price And if there really is a God I must owe him my life If God exists then I owe my life [Verse 2] Enemy or friend? Friend or enemy? I touch tracks tenderly with a suicidal tendency And when I'm gone nobody can fill the vacancy They'll never say I was a victim of complacency In the place to be seen I was home banging beats Baggin trees try'na make ends meet The only way I know how, for now I couldn't stay at my mum's I moved out of the house I'm too proud, crafting to earn a pound And it's my own little niche that I'm carving now Don't ask about the ups and downs Can't you see that I'm still try'na turn my frown upside down I cry the tears of a clown Tears in the rain I'm like a dusty old photo in a rusty frame An old relative you can't remember the name And if it wasn't for me Things just wouldn't be the same [Hook]
