Again Drowning


It's raining out & I'm standing out Thinking it's been year's now I know it ain't no turning it around Because she don't feel me like I feel her Again drowning trying to catch my breath Standing in the rain no stress release Everything's a peach if you see it Gold or It's silver Don't turn around till she's with you This Is the way It's suppose to be Dreaming of a dream Nobody can catch you Because you in between Again drowning Drowning again Rain beats heavy now on your head You got a umbrella with Rip's in it You can't believe It She's not into you Again drowning baby Been so long so many years I can't stand it but live on.

Usually when someone writes about rain, they use it to symbolize cleansing and renewal. You put a spin on this, and used rain to symbolize drowning which has a completely different meaning, yet still extremely powerful and full of imagery. Nice job!
