All things blue today as well as the weather. 

2. 2. 2.  

It seems to stay true, that two things never change;

Age and time burn it into the mind;

That once we’re open, the mind pulls back. 

Retreat. Retreat. Retreat;

Numbness mixed with strength are they really different?

The mind asks under the rainy sky. 

Can you not hear the sadness drip, drip, drip?

Is there anyone to catch the wind that leaves my chest?

See. See. See;

The truth that I have to say goodbye. 

Sadness leaves, behind its scars so deep that rivers run.
