Walk In the Rain


Verse 1


Bbm/Ebm/Ab/Dbmaj7


Some days I feel isolated

nowhere to go,

Some nights I’m alienated,

a scared UFO

Unidentified fragile object,

Petrified of other life,

Terrified whether they even like me,

Who am I?

Verify am I alive?

Sometimes my mind is numb,

Sometimes my mind is done,

Am I dumb?

I need Mum?

I slump myself so low I’m landfill,

It’s deeper than being down in the dumps,

And when you’ve sunk as much as me,

your lungs lose some of its capacity,

Can’t breathe, under the rubble it’s a struggle trying juggle all the junk,

While others complain my face is in a scrunch,

I don’t frown cause I got the hump,

I don’t clown around to have some fun,

Playing different characters like Professor Klump,

I’m trying to disguise the lump in my throat,

I want to cry on the outside, but I just don’t,

I never wanna jump for the rope,

All I ask is for some hope.


Chorus


Bbm

I wanna be right here right now,

Ebm/Bbm

As I walk in the rain,

Ebm/Bbm

It’s allowing my mood to change

Gb/ Bbm

And meditate my way

Gb/ Bbm

And meditate my way

Gb/Bbm

Medication ain’t the only way


Verse 2


Bbm/Ebm/Ab/Dbmaj7


Raindrops dripping on the windowpane,

I remember skimming pebbles on a winter’s day,

The weather made me feel alive in a fountain of pain,

I climb the gradual incline of the mountain ingrained in my brain,

I’m in hiking apparel, I’m liking how I’m finally walking out of my shadow,

It’s exciting when I open my peripherals,

What I can see instead of having narrow vision,

I’m out today I’m not hidden,

I meet friends, leave home,

Get out of my comfort zone,

My anxiety temporarily goes,

Conversation flows,

I no longer straddle alone.


But I do put pressure on myself,

My to do list stretches to the Alps,

If I don’t do it, it messes with my mental health,

And income the mental doubts.


I need a to dar list so I,

Can see how much I’ve achieved how far I’ve climbed,

I need treat myself like I treat my friends,

Be kind to my mind,

I said, I need treat myself like I treat my friends,

Be kind to my mind.


Chorus


I need a social prescription

As I navigate the pain

It’s allowing my mood to change

And meditate my way

And meditate my way

Medication ain’t the only way


Verse 3


Trying to get support is a post code lottery,

If I win, I’d implement a social policy,

We need to be vocal honestly,

We need National help, that starts with local priorities.


More appropriate provisions,

Fed up of the division,

Fed of GPS who when I beg are indifferent,

As they refuse to believe I have a mental health condition,

And even if they do, they offer medication,

I need other therapies like meditation,

Social prescribing,

No more online subscribing,

Real human interaction,
