lyrics

The haunting view of the girl you left in the rain
The haunting view of that girl that you left in the rain

The boy was high on cheap electric thrill
He felt the rush of moving in for the kill when he said
"There's no one here who knows the things that you feel
I got the same black feeling, got that same black feeling"

He took his guilt and tucked it into a song
And sang it every night like nothing was wrong
Everybody in the joint was always humming along
"I think I know that tune, I think I know that tune

It's been keeping me awake
There's something off that I can't shake
It's been keeping me awake"

The morning that she woke up by his side
He sang the tune that he had wrote that night
And in the melody were all his lies
And the rest of the nights of the rest of her life

Every line brought out another cloud
The chords were wringing all the water out
Beyond the bedroom was a flooding town
"It's really coming down, it's really coming down"

The haunting view of the girl you left in the rain

The whole city's gonna drown tonight
Thanks to you, thanks to you
