You thought you had it in you to taste the rain
But before you knew the truth
The lie of this life's fragile secrets is set loose
You feel it in your mouth
Cleansing all that you thought you'd become
And then you're left wondering
If it really tasted as ethereal as air
Or if you just weren't good enough as who you are
To feel something more than yourself in what you thought was rain
What you thought was truth
