Rumours of Rain

Verse 1
There have been rumours of rain
Each time I hear them it causes pain
I heard similar reports last year
Since then, I have not been the same
I lost myself and everything I knew about me
I'm still desperately searching
My future hinges on me reconnecting with the person I once was
At any time they say the rain will fall again

Verse 2
The weatherman frequently updates us on the impending storm
But there is only so much we can do
We simply don't have the power to turn this thing around
I lost myself and everything I knew about me
I am still desperately searching
My future hinges on me reconnecting with the person that I once was
At any time they say we must be prepared

Bridge
I'm feeling the same feeling that I did last year
When I was ripped away from myself
I swore to get my life back
No matter what the coast was
And now this may be the moment I've been hoping for
I have the chance to be me again

Chorus 1
Rumours of rain are the talk of the town
I already feel like I'm swimming in a sea of emotions
I'm struggling against the current
I'm trying to hold onto delicate objects within my grasp
The water is slowly rising and I'm that much closer
To finding who I was and losing what is left of me
This is the fight of my life, this is the ultimate test
I will either win or lose once again

Chorus 2
Rumours of rain are the talk of the town
I already feel like I'm drowning in a sea of emotions
I'm struggling against the current
I'm trying to hold onto delicate objects within my grasp
The water is slowly rising and I'm that much closer
To finding who I was and losing what is left of me
This is the fight of my life, this is the ultimate test
I will either win or lose once again
