Jack Savoretti - Blackrain lyrics

A dirty rain is falling at my feet And people walk pretending not to see And I don't know why everybody wants what they don't need It's everybody's world, one man's grave And heaven only knows what's hidden up this late Using diamonds, clubs, and spades, he'll win your heart And build a house of cards And build a house of cards Till we all fall down And we all fall down Watch us all fall down Like black rain The building's getting tall; watch it scrape the sky Can't see the stars at all through the city lights When the fuel runs low, who cares if we're getting high? It's not the things you know, but the things that you deny That make us all fall down And we all fall down Watch us all fall down Like black rain Like black rain Like black rain A dirty rain is falling at my feet And people walk pretending not to see And I don't know why everybody wants what they don't need Well we all fall down Till we all fall down Watch the oil fall down Like black rain Like black rain (It's not always gonna rain It's not always gonna rain It's not always gonna rain)
