Rain On - Angela Ross/Shift to Abundance
I've been praying in the bathroom
Facing the sink, cold water
Red eyes, phone lighting up on the tile floor
Your name buzzing like a housefly
Mama said child
Let it pass
But this weight's too deep in my chest
Can't breathe when the room gets quiet
Can't sleep, can't call it rest
I need a river to run
Through my heart
Wash this fire down, cool these scars
Carry my body where the hurricane follows
Leave all your shadows in yesterday's clothes
I need a sky that don't know your name
Soft blue silence over my shame
If there's a door
Out of this mess
Open it wide
Put rain on my chest
Put rain on my chest
On my chest
On my chest
Every corner of this small place
Got a picture, got a laugh
I keep talking to the hallway
Like you're turning that key in the lock
My friends say girl just dance
But the floor feels cracked under my feet
So I sway in the dark by myself
To the sound of my own heartbeat
I need a river to run
Through my heart
Wash this fire down, cool these scars
Carry my body where the hurricane follows
Leave all your shadows in yesterday's clothes
I need a sky that don't know your name
Soft blue silence over my shame
If there's a door
Out of this mess
Open it wide
Put rain on my chest
Put rain on my chest
On my chest
On my chest
Take me somewhere my tongue feels like
Where my laughter don't taste like blame
Where I look in the mirror at a stranger
And find it like her name
Oh, healing is a far off town
I walk these blisters dry
One step, then another, then another
Till your memory falls by
I need a river to run
Through my heart
Wash this fire down
Carry my body where the hurricane follows
Leave all your shadows in yesterday's clothes
I need a sky that don't know your name
Soft blue silence over my shame
If there's a door
Out of this mess
Open it wide
Put rain on my chest
Put rain on my chest
Put rain on my chest
On my chest
