Escuchando: Assemblage 23 – Naked<\/p>\n

Too eager to appease
\nThe cure is the disease
\nAnd it’s only growing worse<\/b><\/p>\n

Day by day it takes its hold
\nDivides its cells a thousand-fold
\nAnd makes your blindness seem perverse<\/b><\/p>\n

Out of sight and out of mind
\nAre deadly traits when they’re combined
\nBut it’s easier that way<\/p>\n

Sit and watch<\/b> the world<\/b> go by
\nWhile all the problems multiply<\/b>
\nWith nothing left<\/b> to do but pray<\/p>\n

I am the rain
\nFalling down<\/b> to cover you
\nWish me away
\nBut I’m here<\/b> for your own good
\nI am the storm<\/b>
\nSent to wake you from your dream<\/b>
\nShow me your scorn
\nBut you’ll thank me in the end<\/p>\n

These amenities are nice<\/b>
\nBut there is need<\/b> for sacrifice
\nYou must lose so you may gain<\/p>\n

It’s too easy<\/b> to malign
\nThe implements that steal our time<\/b>
\nBut it’s we who are to blame<\/p>\n

Fill your pockets while you can<\/b>
\nAnd try to keep<\/b> the upper hand
\nThe voice of reason<\/b> sounds so shrill<\/p>\n

Surround yourself with all you own
\nWork your fingers to the bone
\nAnd happiness evades you still<\/b><\/p>\n

I am the rain
\nFalling down to cover you
\nWish me away
\nBut I’m here for your own good
\nI am the storm
\nSent to wake you from your dream
\nShow me your scorn
\nBut you’ll thank me in the end<\/p>\n

Too eager to appease
\nYou’ve lost the forest for the trees
\nAnd it really is a shame<\/p>\n

It is such a sorry sight<\/b>
\nWhen you evaluate your life<\/b>
\nYou’ve only got yourself to blame<\/b><\/p>\n

I am the rain
\nFalling down<\/b> to cover you
\nWish me away<\/b>
\nBut I’m here for your own good
\nI am the storm<\/b>
\nSent to wake you from your dream<\/b>
\nShow me your scorn
\nBut you’ll thank me in the end<\/b><\/p>\n
