Verse 1:

The sky’s been crying, and I’m drowning too,

With every word I wish I never knew.

Promises fading, they’re just dust in the air,

I’ve been waiting for a love that’s never there.

I see your shadow in the pouring rain,

It haunts me like a never-ending pain.

The road’s been long, but I’m still here,

Chasing the silence, chasing the fear.

I’ve been running circles in my mind,

Searching for a peace I can’t find.

Chorus:

And I’m crying tears in the rain,

Trying to wash away this pain.

But it never falls far enough,

To heal the wounds left by your love.

Tears in the rain, do you hear my cries?

Lost in the storm, tangled in lies.

But I’ll keep chasing what I can’t see,

Until I find what’s left of me.

Verse 2:

I’m walking through a world turned cold,

Holding on to memories I can’t let go.

The nights stretch long, the days too short,

Searching for something that’s gone, out of thought.

The thunder roars, but I don’t flinch,

I’m numb to it all, to every inch.

What’s been broken, what’s been lost,

I’ll keep moving, no matter the cost.

And when I think I’ve had enough,

I keep reaching for a love that’s tough.

Every step I take feels like a fight,

But I’ll keep walking through the night.

Chorus:

And I’m crying tears in the rain,

Trying to wash away this pain.

But it never falls far enough,

To heal the wounds left by your love.

Tears in the rain, do you hear my cries?

Lost in the storm, tangled in lies.

But I’ll keep chasing what I can’t see,

Until I find what’s left of me.

Bridge:

I’ve been waiting for the sun to rise,

For the clouds to part and clear my eyes.

But every morning feels so far away,

I wonder if I’ll ever feel okay.

My soul is breaking free, from this cage,

From all the heartbreak, the endless rage.

I won’t stop, I’ll keep holding tight,

Even when the world don’t feel right.

I’ll fight through the storm, with all I’ve got,

Hoping that peace will be what I’ve sought.

Verse 3:

I reach out in the dark, trying to find a way,

To break the chains that keep me here, day after day.

The storms rage on, but I won’t fall,

I’ll stand tall and face it all.

Though I’ve been torn apart inside,

I’ll keep searching, won’t run or hide.

What’s been taken, what’s been stolen,

I’ll reclaim it, my heart’s unbroken.

And when the winds try to tear me down,

I’ll fight back, never wearing a frown.

With every tear, I’ll find my strength,

I’ll walk through the rain, go any length.

Chorus:

And I’m crying tears in the rain,

Trying to wash away this pain.

But it never falls far enough,

To heal the wounds left by your love.

Tears in the rain, do you hear my cries?

Lost in the storm, tangled in lies.

But I’ll keep chasing what I can’t see,

Until I find what’s left of me.

Outro:

I’m crying tears in the rain,

And maybe one day, I’ll break these chains.

But for now, I’ll stand in the storm,

Letting the tears fall ‘til I’m reborn.

I’m crying tears in the rain,

And maybe one day, I’ll feel the sun again.

But for now, I’ll stand in the storm,

Letting the tears fall ‘til I’m reborn.

Authors Note:

"Tears in the Rain" was written as a reflection on the complexities of emotional turmoil and personal growth. The rain, often seen as a symbol of cleansing, contrasts with the internal struggle who finds themselves stuck in a cycle of pain and longing. This song reflects the experience of waiting for resolution, while accepting that healing is often a slow and uncertain process.

The themes of unrequited love, loss, and resilience are central to the song. As the protagonist faces the storm, both external and internal, they discover that even in the darkest moments, there is a flicker of hope that drives them to keep going. It’s a reminder that while we may not always understand our pain or why we face certain challenges, there’s power in continuing to move forward, even if the path is unclear.

I hope this song resonates with anyone who has ever felt lost or overwhelmed by the weight of their emotions, and that it offers a sense of comfort and encouragement. Sometimes, it’s okay to let the tears fall—they’re part of the process of finding ourselves again.
