does it rain like it rains here on fifth street?
nine days long the raindrops
finding what's wrong
this roof i've raised over my head

does time fly like it does here on the second-floor?
five ways to go but only one place to be
if only i could get there from here
only i could get today
if only i could get there today

wish it was simple like a train-ride behind windows in this
while time flies like sand through fingers

wish it was simple like colour
the flashes in the soul
like talk-phones connected to imaginary friends
you might not know how it gets
you might not know how it gets
you might not know

and if it was simple like a smile
on paper plate faces
instead of pages
of songs with no words

does it rain like it rains here on fifth street?
nine days long the raindrops
finding what's wrong
this roof i've raised over my head
if only i could get out of here today
wish i could get out of here today
if only i could get out of here today
