Walked Through The Rain

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Heavy oak doors slammed behind me in the dark Cobwebs on the chandelier, lightning struck the park Floorboards screaming every step, shadows on the wall Ghosts of yesterday were screaming down the empty hall I broke the lock and leaped the gate into the pouring rain Running from the memory, running from the pain I swore that I was done with love, I swore I'd walk alone With every promise buried underneath the rotting stone [Chorus] And trust became a burden when the fire turned to ash All the principles we bled for ended in a flash Every ghost inside that house was someone I once knew Who smiled while they were tearing every single vow in two Yeah, trust became a burden, heavy as a chain Till you pulled me from the wreck and walked me through the rain [Verse 2] I met you on the borderline, shivering and cold With a story full of secrets that I couldn't even hold You looked into my haunted eyes and didn't run away You didn't ask me for a lie, you didn't make me pay You said you walked that road before, you knew the very same The way a broken heart forgets the music and the name You reached your hand across the dark where shadows used to cling And proved to me that kindness is a living, breathing thing [Chorus] And trust became a burden when the fire turned to ash All the principles we bled for ended in a flash Every ghost inside that house was someone I once knew Who smiled while they were tearing every single vow in two Yeah, trust became a burden, heavy as a chain Till you pulled me from the wreck and walked me through the rain [Bridge] Mitra, you walked into the storm And kept the freezing darkness warm You took the weight off my chest And put the restless ghosts to rest No more running, no more fear Now the path ahead is clear [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] And trust became a burden when the fire turned to ash All the principles we bled for ended in a flash Every ghost inside that house was someone I once knew Who smiled while they were tearing every single vow in two Yeah, trust became a burden, heavy as a chain Till you pulled me from the wreck and walked me through the rain [Outro] Mitra, you changed me for the better No more heavy chains We left the mansion far behind us Walking through the clearing rain Yeah, kindness still exists Mitra, you showed me the way out (Fade out)
