Dennis Maniatakis - Denace - Emma lyrics

When it rains, it pours All the pain we endure, we should raise, and march When it rains, it pours Our demons we fight with a blazing torch When it rains, it pours There was a girl named Emma Emma was twelve years old You could find this kinda girl in every area code She spent most of her days alone, locked in her room Looking out the window, rain drops in the room Thoughts of suicide, would even cut her self She didn't love herself She hated her reflection, she cried for attention but no one listened Emma was depressed, daddy was missing Mama was busy working, she wishes things were different She only had one friend, and that friend had both parents It hurt Emma bad, her soul slowly perished Mama loved her but mama was always running errands Emma asked mama ''mama, why you never home'' ''Mama I got an A in cla**, look'' ''Baby, that's good'' ''But I gotta go to work, we'll talk about it later'' ''You always say that, mama'' ''I promise, Emma'' ''You always promise, you always break it'' 'You're not being honest'' When it rains, it pours All the pain we endure, we should raise, and march When it rains, it pours Our demons we fight with a blazing torch When it rains, it pours When it rains, it pours All the pain we endure, we should raise, and march When it rains, it pours Our demons we fight with a blazing torch When it rains, it pours Four years later Emma's sixty Doing bad in school, has a bad attitude Addicted to valiums Addicted to s** with boys, and girls in school bathrooms Emma can care less if mama's never home Cause now she can bring boys to her house that'll double her age They'll bring d** so she can get blown She's still missing the times when daddy was around But daddy left so the boy she just met with a car can hold her down She's looking for love in all the wrong places She's sleeping with strangers, the fast life's contagious She knows what she's doing is dangerous but she don't give a sh** If she lives, or dies tonight, she's trying to live a bit Deep down there's a little girl that's just lost her route But no one was around to show her how to get out So now she's stuck in the vicious cycle, and it's going down Something bad might happen if she doesn't slow it down When it rains, it pours All the pain we endure, we should raise, and march When it rains, it pours Our demons we fight with a blazing torch When it rains, it pours When it rains, it pours All the pain we endure, we should raise, and march When it rains, it pours Our demons we fight with a blazing torch When it rains, it pours Emma's twenty years old now but her face is thirty Maturity never struck but d** aged her early She's been through a lot of tough times, mistakes, and worry This place she's placed herself in is grey and blurry She barely sees mama When mama tries to call her, she says it's too late mamma I gotta go meet Conner Conner is my new boyfriend, I know you never met him Cause I won't let him He's asked about you, and I won't tell him How great of a mother you were, a drug addicted felon I'll keep that a secret between us, no need for yelling Hangs up the phone, picks up a needle from the night stand Flicks it a couple times, and sticks it in her right hand Lays her head back on the pillow, looks at the ceiling Little does she know she's injected too much of that feeling Looking out the window, she slowly dies off That's the last raindrop her eyes saw When it rains, it pours All the pain we endure, we should raise, and march When it rains, it pours Our demons we fight, with a blazing torch When it rains, it pours When it rains, it pours All the pain we endure, we should raise, and march When it rains, it pours Our demons we fight, with a blazing torch When it rains, it pours When it rains, it pours All the pain we endure, we should raise, and march When it rains, it pours Our demons we fight, with a blazing torch When it rains, it pours
