I’m in the basement again Footsteps and voices pierce the floor above my head But they won’t find my ears this way They're being silenced by the unrelenting rain It won’t go away
Thunder and lightning cast themselves high onto the stairs that I have just begun to climb A quest of question, a storm of uncertainty Seeking an answer that will kill me
But this rain won’t go away because alleluias fade Maybe this world is not conclusion but narcotics wont control the wonder gnawing my soul
And I’ll cry those old lies no more I’m sure I need more than faith For now I’ll think and wait
Maybe you’ll see me on Sunday dressed and believing with my eyes Yea I’ll be on my knees Sunday silently screaming in my mind
