When they can't see you're crying
For the raindrops on your face
You let loose a fleeting smile of victory
If they can't see the man behind the mask
You're safe, you're safe, salvation

I've walked that like and recovered
I've known that powerful touch
The protection of the elements
To blanket your emotions
With the weather that surrounds

Another silhouette on the promenade
An excuse to linger over past's dregs
Clearing your head an excuse for self-torture
I'd help your through if you swallow your pride

Coaxing a smile from red raw features
The true art of a close friend
Damn, I mix up my actions
Am I flirting or comforting?
Your smile, your smile, warms my heart

Rebuilding fortifications I want rubble
Don't hide from the world in the rain
The clouds must clear some day
Maybe I'll shine upon you one time
My hand, slips down, to your knee
