Raining

It's raining outside
Maybe inside too
I can't tell though
Inside, I can't feel the rain on my skin

Perhaps it's just the temperature
That would explain the cold
But not why I hear the rain falling
a steady drip-drip down my nose

I'm standing in the rain, you see
It splashes from skin to shirt
And if it's not raining
Then why are my eyes so wet?

It's hailing outside
Maybe inside too
I can't tell though
Inside I can't feel the sting of my skin

Maybe it's just me though
That would explain why I'm cold
And why I can hear the rain falling
Down my cheeks and nose

I'm standing in hail and sleet, you see
It splashes across lips and brows
And if it's not sleeting
Then why is my heart so cold?

It's sunny outside
Maybe inside too
But it doesn't feel warm
And I cannot feel my skin

Maybe that's just life though
That would explain a lot
Like why there is no rain
But it's falling down my face.

I'm standing all alone now, you see
That isn't rain that splashes to my coat
And if it isn't sunny
That must be why it is not bright.

It is raining outside
And that is not an allegory
But it is raining inside
