Hard Side of the Rain

Twisted shards of metal

Silhouetted against the sky

The dust may never settle

But those clouds keep rolling by

Ignorance and folly are the order of the day

But nothing lasts forever

It might seem that way

It might seem that way

But there's a brand new day

But there's a brand new day

When the hard side of the rain

Won't hammer at your head

The mad ride on this train

Will stop when the lights turn red

The dark tide of your pain

Will turn the tide instead

And wash away the hard side of the rain

When your windows shake and rattle

And the storm comes crashing down

People act like cattle

Herded across the ground

And you're working on a losing streak

And you can't see the victory come

Well you can't win every battle

But you can win some

But you can win some

You know you gotta win some

You know you gotta win some

When the hard side of the rain

Won't hammer at your head

The mad ride on this train

Will stop when the lights turn red

The dark tide of your pain

Will turn the tide instead

And wash away the hard side of the rain

When the sky is a solid mass brooding overhead

And the place where you put your pillow

Is not where you put your bed

And the weight of every raindrop

Feels like a ton of lead

And your windows shake and rattle

The storm is coming on

You can't win every battle

But you can win some

But you can win some

But you can win some

But you can win some

When the hard side of the rain

Won't hammer at your head

The mad ride on this train

Will stop when the lights turn red

The dark tide of your pain

Will turn the tide instead

And wash away the hard side of the rain
