Verse1:
A man stands broken
So alone without direction
He wonders if life
Is worth anything
Cuz he's lost his faith
In everything

Chorus:
Standing in the rain
No one can see you cry
Let go of your pain
Free yourself inside
All the faces blend to gray
And we all look the same
You know you're not the only one
Standing in the rain

Verse2:
A woman stands bleeding
With bruised and battered wings
She wonders if love
Is worth her pain
Cuz she keeps going back
Again and again

CHORUS

Verse3:
A child stands frightened
Unable to comprehend
He wonders if someone
Will meet him there
Cuz he feels forgotten
And he's so scared

Life becomes tragic
Time stands static
Screaming faces
Disguise the traces
Of so many tears
Supressed for years
Release your pain
Into the rain
Let it wash away
The dust and decay
Let it fall on your skin
Erase loathing within
It drains to the ground
And you look around
See the scars of everyone
You're not the only one
Naked - unclothed
Your emotions exposed
Don't be ashamed
Standing out in the rain
