Daughter Of The Universe

Chapter 5: Rainfall
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Lonely days, Spent in isolation
Locked from the world
Hiding behind tearful eyes
Drifting aimlessly
With no care of my life
To be honest
I would much rather die

Sitting alone, my tears begin to fall
Sitting alone, To the darkness of depression
I crawl...

Suicide seems such a pretty thought
But im to much a coward
To even end my life

On the ground I lay
And i look to the sky
Stars blanket the silent night
And finally, I breakdown and cry

SOLO

I prefer it when it rains
'Cause no one can see that im crying
And i love it when it rains
Because my mind is clear again

I prefer it when it rains
'Cause I can wash my tears away
And i love it when it rains...

Because no one can see that im crying...

SOLO

Oh, How i love it
When it rains...

In the story, when the crew is searching for the daughter, they are caught in more than one battle. While passing a planet under attack, they attempt to rescue anyone they can from the last city not on fire...Completely at least. the only person they rescue is a 17 year old girl who just saw the destruction of her entire home, and she feels guilty she couldnt do anything, after they escape with her, she feels all alone.

These set of lyrics take place when they land on an uncharted planet that is giving off strange signals containing distress beacons. She sits in the jungle planet, feeling alone and lost.

The whole thing is actually based around Rain, as you might have noticed, I did this because for some reason Rainfall, and being in it, has always been very peaceful and serene to me.

Well, its a work in progress, this shot into my head at midnight so i jotted them down.

PS
They are meant to be this short, most of the song is actually based around solo's and soft mellow interludes

PPS
Someone asked me if this epic saga o' mine would be like a small set of songs on an album....Well this is looking like an entire album....or two...

Sounds good man. How many parts are there to Daughter of the Universe?

PS On the ground I lay
And i look to the sky
Stars blanket the silent night
And finally, I breakdown and cry

I like those lines

Nice idea but there is already a Garbage song with the title "I'm only happy when it rains"...
