I played against the rain tonight.
With Melody and grit
I played against the rain.
-
Each chord and note I fought
But to Storm I was unfit.
Yet I still played against the rain
-
Dobro sung. Beneath my fingers versed
But to Storm I was unfit.
I still played against the rain
-
And yet they showered down;
The cloud girls cried.
I still played against their tears.
-
And even soaked, with my strings
Rung dull. I continued
And played against the rain.
-
The melodies slowly, silenced
as my bones wore cold
as I played against the rain
-
Stationary my song rung hollow
And never again
Shall I play against the rain.
