about

‘Fall Like Rain’ is a love song for the world. An acoustic, lo-fi, hip-hop ballad to dance you through storms.

lyrics

CHORUS:

I hold my head up high
No matter what comes my way
I take my storms in stride
‘Cause it can be fun in the rain

VERSE 1

We’re the tears
and all that water
a soul lost in the wonder
of all that got forgotten
we’re the money made from cotton
the pollen and all that’s rotten
the robin come springtime blossom
the blossom that turns to autumn
in the universe’s garden

We’re magic makers
circle shapers
mapping galaxies and symbols
lost inside our spoken riddle
twisted thunder
we’re the knee/neck knuckled under
We’re the tears
and all that water
a soul lost in the wonder
of all that got forgotten
we’re cyclical

CHORUS

I hold my head up high
No matter what comes my way
I take my storms in stride
‘Cause it can be fun in the rain

VERSE 2

I hold my head up high
even though they try to break us
they can’t shake us
take us to the edge
so we can jump
on their terms
they can’t make us

Like ghosts we disappear
return like a leap year
we become the atmosphere
of all that they once feared

I’m the lion and the deer
so I hold my head up high
even though I try to break me
I can’t shake me
I’m the open sky
I leap
repeal all that forbade me
I’m your king
I’m your lady
not scared of what awaits me

Your shady arrogance needs
a makeover to face me
I entered all your spheres
I never disappeared
transformed the atmosphere
of all that I once feared
I’m the smallest molecule
in a universal gear

I’m wide awake
as I fly away
we’re the Wide Awakes
while you tidal wave
over all the lies
that you hid away
You're the day-to-day
we’re a passageway
to another world
You're just yesterday
in an alleyway
trying to lead astray
but we’re underway
to the milky way

Whaaaaaat?!

BRIDGE

Maybe you feel cold inside, maybe you feel dark
Maybe it’s broke outside, maybe it’s just the start
Maybe every single pain you’ve ever faced
Will wash away if you let it fall like rain

OUTRO

I hold my head up high
(let it fall like rain)
No matter what comes my way
(let if fall like rain)
I take my storms in stride
(let it fall like rain)
‘Cause it can be fun in the rain
