The song tries to capture what it is like for Aaron wit...
[Verse 1]
Your words to me just a whisper
Your face is so unclear
I try to pay attention
Your words just disappear
[Chorus]
Oh
'Cause it's always raining in my head
Oh
Forget all the things I should have said
[Verse 2]
So I speak to you in riddles
'Cause my words get in my way
I smoke the whole thing to my head
And feel it wash away
[Verse 3]
'Cause I can't take anymore of this
I wanna come apart
Or dig myself a little hole
Inside your precious heart
[Chorus]
Oh
'Cause it's always raining in my head
Oh
Forget all the things I should have said
[Verse 4]
I am nothing more than
A little boy inside
That cries out for attention
Yet I always try to hide
[Verse 5]
'Cause I talk to you like children
Though I don't know how I feel
But I know I'll do the right thing
If the right thing is revealed
[Outro]
'Cause it's always raining in my head
Forget all the things I should have said
