[Verse:] The drought was the very worst When the flowers that we'd grown together died of thirst It was months and months of back-and-forth You still all over me like a wine-stained dress I can't wear anymore Hum ahead as I lost the war And the sky turned black like a perfect storm
[Chorus:] Rain came pouring down When I was drowning, that's when I could finally breathe And by morning, gone was any trace of you And I think I am finally clean
[Verse 2:] There was nothing left to do When the butterflies turned to dust, they covered my whole room So I punched a hole in the roof Let the flood carry away all my pictures of you The water filled my lungs, I screamed so loud But no one heard a thing
[Chorus:]
[Bridge:] Ten months sober, I must admit Just because you clean don't mean you don't miss it Ten months older, I won't give in Now that I'm clean, I'm never gonna risk it The drought was the very worst When the flowers that we'd grown together died of thirst
[Chorus:] Rain came pouring down When I was drowning, that's when I could finally breathe And by morning, gone was any trace of you And I think I am finally clean
