I am standing up at the water’s edge in my dream

I cannot make a single sound as you scream

Em7 A/E Em
We touch, this place is so quiet, sensing that storm

There is no blood around see no sign of pain
No pain, seeing no red at all, see no rain [chorus]

Putting the pressure on much harder now
To return again and again
Just let the red rain splash you
Let the rain fall on your skin
I come to you defences down
With the trust of a child
Em
And I can’t watch any more, no more denial
C Em
It’s so hard to lay down in all of this
C
Red rain is pouring down
Red rain is coming down all over me
I see it
Red rain is coming down
Red rain is pouring down
Red rain is coming down all over me
I’m bathing in
Red rain coming down
Red rain is coming down
Red rain is coming down all over me
I’m begging you
Red rain coming down
Red rain coming down
Red rain coming down
Red rain coming down
Over me in the red red sea
D Cmaj7 Dsus4
Over me
Cmaj7 Dsus4
Over me
Em
Red rain
