Rainbow Of Gloom

Winter had its way with me
Summer never comes
How long must I wait for thee
While the water runs
I left the water running
And slowly left the room
Descending down the stairs
Into a rainbow of gloom
I walked into a rainbow of gloom
I wake up at the break of day
And tumble through the night
My courage hunts down everything
Yet I’m still held captive by the light
I won’t wake tomorrow
I’ll stay up with the moon
Counting every stripe
Upon this rainbow of gloom
Upon this rainbow of gloom
And when the clouds have had their fill
The rain has washed away the scum
The anger of the wind at midnight
Every blade of grass will hum
You can find me here
In my little room
Waiting for death to come
And take away this rainbow of gloom
And take away this rainbow of gloom
