Lineman in the Rain
V1
Dark storm a raging outside my door
I’ve never felt this bad before
I’ll raise my glass and take it down
My cherished loved ones are not around
V2
This is my life for 3 long years
I never knew I’d wind up here
Look out the window in all my shame
I see a lineman in the rain
C1
I’m all alone I can’t go out
I’m scared to death to leave this house
I’m drowning in this awful pain
Just like a lineman in the rain
V3
My tortured soul could use some grace
It should’ve been me in their place
I lost control behind the wheel
the rain came down, then all was still
V4
It was only me, how’d I survive
My family’s gone, I scream and cry
Outside the car, I watch in vain
There lays a lineman in the rain
C2
I’m all alone I can’t go out
I’m scared to death to leave this house
I’m drowning in this awful pain
Just like a lineman in the rain
V5
My body aches, from day to day
Stare out the window, as I decay
The storms been driving me in sane
God help that lineman in the rain
C3
I’m all alone I can’t go out
I’m scared to death to leave this house
I’m drowning in this awful pain
Just like a lineman in the rain
