Rain On Locked Windows

Verse 1

I spoke in whispers

When shouting did not matter

My truth fell like rain

On locked-up windows

Crowded rooms went on

Louder voices won

My words went thin

Then vanished in the noise

Pre-Chorus

They questioned my memory

Measured every bruise

I stared at my reflection

And it stared back confused

I wasn't asking

For a miracle

Just one pair of eyes

To stay and tell me

Chorus

I hear you

I hear you

Say it to me plain

I hear you

I hear you

Don't leave me in the rain

Verse 2

Silence took my name

And wrapped it round my ribs

It grew roots in my chest

Told me to disappear

Sleepless nights I carried

Every shaken part of me

Trembling in the morning

Still I made it through

Pre-Chorus

They looked away so long

I learned that ache by heart

But even under pressure

A voice can leave a spark

I wasn't asking

For a miracle

Just one pair of eyes

To stay and tell me

Chorus

I hear you

I hear you

Say it to me plain

I hear you

I hear you

Don't leave me in the rain

Bridge

The truth stays true

When they turn from it

A wound still hurts

When they won't admit it

The stars don't leave

Just because the clouds move in

And if I shake tonight

I'll still begin again

Final Chorus

I hear you

I hear you

No more turning away

I hear you

I hear you

My voice is here to stay

I hear you

I hear you

The dawn will find my name
