[Verse] Drizzle drips like a needle's thread Stitching the sky in shades of lead Streetlights hum in the puddles' glow Echoes of footsteps A shadow show A cracked umbrella whispers tales Wind sings low in alley scales The city's breath is thick with haze A smokey hymn These autumn days [Prechorus] Clouds curl A grey mosaic Every drop A lyric opaque [Chorus] Shadows on the cobblestone Rain’s rhythm A metronome Falling faster Falling slow Lost in the beat Nowhere to go [Verse 2] A lamppost bends Its spine askew Casting halos in the midnight dew Damp leaves scatter Whispers break Secrets caught in the undertow's wake Graffiti bleeds on the peeling brick Truths half-written Words that stick Rain like static A vinyl’s hiss An urban hymn A fleeting kiss
