This is a song that just sorta came to me I began to write about the rain and how much I love it and this emerged. I was thinking about my 7th and 9th grade year, and kinda the whole scenario behind it, for those who don't know, those were really bad years, I was verbally attacked often and constantly told this world would be better off if I were dead. I often came home in tears because of things that were said, and I didn't know what to do I felt like God had abandon me and I was done with life. I wanted it to end.. Well this one wendsday night upwards the end of 9th grade I was crying and yelled "God If you love me I need to hear it because unless I know you love me and are with me, I'm ending it tonight!"
Well that night I went to Youth group and a girl I had never met before came up to me, and gave me this note, it basically said "I have never met you, but I love you. God loves you, He has shown me your heart and the beautiful person you are. I would and will lay my life down for you." I broke, God Loves me!! He heard me!! And so thats what this song is really about.

Do you hear the rolling thunder
Can you see the lightening flash
Feel the rain
Welcome to my life
Darkness always follows
Telling me I'm worthless
It says Hello
And I'm trapped
Why does this always happen
When things get so bad
I wanna run I wanna cry
Cut my wrists give up don't try
Chorus:
Is there anybody out there
Give me a reason
to save my life
From death tonight
Can everybody hear me
Are my words spoken clearly
Call my names
Or I'm leaving Hell tonight
The mocking words they sting me
Play with my mind and hurt me
Can't they see
I'm broken inside
This corner is my friend
Two walls protect me
I'm alone
And I cry
Why does this always happen
When things get so bad
I wanna run I wanna cry
Cut my wrists give up don't try
(CHORUS)
Time was no friend
Time was no friend
Time was no friend
Pull the trigger (repeat multiple times)
(CHORUS)
Then I read the words
written clearly cross the page
How did you know
I needed to know(X2)
I.........
I.......
I.........
I love you (repeat multiple times)
I know your out there
Gave me a reason
To save my life
From death tonight
Can everybody hear me
His words are spoken clearly
He called my name
This isn't Hell, I'm here tonight!
I know this recording isn't great, it was done with my webcam, but it gives you the idea of how its supposed to sound. =)
