9 Days Of Rain

Does it rain like it rains here on Fifth street?
Nine days long the raindrops finding what's wrong
With this roof i've raised over my head
Does time fly like it does here on the second-floor?
Five ways to go but only one place to be
If only I could get there from here
Only I could get there today
If only I could get there today

Wish it was simple like a train
Ride behind windows invisible
While towns pass like sand through fingers

Wish it was simple like colour
The flashes in the soul
Like talk phones connected to imaginary friends
You might not know how it gets
You might not know how it gets
You might not know

And if it was simple like a smile on paper plate faces
Instead of pages of songs with no words

Does it rain like it rains here on Fifth street?
Nine days long the raindrops finding what's wrong
With this roof I've raised over my head
If only I could get out of here today
Wish I could get out of here today
If only I could get out of here today
