Hey guys, I wrote this working a parking lot down the shore. It was the 4th of July and it was raining.

lyrics

Rain’s comin’ down
On the 4th of July
I don’t know everything
But God knows I try
People don’t mean what they say
Why else would they love you
And then walk away?

I’m trapped in a circle
And I can’t get out
What good is living life
If you keep spinning round?
The Merry-Go-Round is not fun
Anymore
Please get me off babe
There’s not much more I can endure

‘Cause Life is a never-ending game, that we play
It’s always for fortune,
It’s always the same
And I don’t know when it will end
But I’m counting down the days
Cuz I need some rest

And I don’t know what I’m doin to myself
But I don’t know
How to be
Someone else

Rain’s comin down
On the 4th of July
I look out my window
There’s no clouds in the sky

The rain’s rollin down from my cheek
Cuz I’m finally leavin’
And getting some sleep

And everything seems to be goin’ wrong
I guess you don’t know a good thing
till it’s practically gone
And if I could give one piece of advice
Spend each moment having the time of your
Life.
