Fall southern rain

Through my fingers

Through my veins

Fall southern rain

And wash her away

Fall on this empty man

Drip like nails

Through my hands

Fall southern rain

And wash her away

Her love was a lullaby

There was something deranged in her eyes

And her sugary skin was hungry for change

Fall southern rain

Through the gutters

And the drains

Fall southern rain

And wash her away

Fall like the southern snow

Touch the winter of my soul

Fall southern rain

And wash her away

Yes her love was a lullaby

And she looked kind of strange when she smiled

And her sugary skin was hungry for shame

Fall southern rain

Through my fingers

Through my veins

Fall southern rain

And wash her away

Fall like the southern snow

Touch the winter of my soul

Fall southern rain

And wash her away
