All my clouds had silver linings
I used to look forward to black skies
Pain used to be my brother
Pain used to be my best friend
All my clouds had silver linings

It seems I never will

Now I have no one to listen to
No one to turn to
And still the clouds rain down

My favorite color was silver
I looked forward to the rain
I never feared the pain
I never knew
I never knew the pain
I never knew what it meant to look into black skies
Dark, black skies
No silver in sight
No hope to find
No joy to grab

My world is overcast by silver clouds
My life is a glistening shadow
My hope is shrouded in black smoke
And my luck has finally gone

I should have listened
When they told me that it would
