the rainy days never seem to end
the river rises again and again
and floods my heart with waters cold
carefully as i built it, the levy does not hold
the clouds never clear, not all the way
reports omnipresent, nothing good to say
storms aplenty that i have no choice but to brave
i fear one day they'll send me to my grave.

Let's Don't Do This
"I just can't do this anymore..." "Do what?" What can't you do? Put gas in your own car? I swear to God you make me take care of everything, don't you? You know I'm on my way to work right now but that never stops you from bothering me, does it?"
