Philip Do - Clouds

{Verse 1}
Since I've been a child
Whenever I've looked at the sky
I've just seen clouds blocking the light

They used to be white
But now they are turning grey
Looks like it's going to start to rain

{Chorus}
When will this be over
I can take it no longer
I thought when I was older
Things would get better

{Verse 2}
As water touches my skin
I realize I didn't bring
An umbrella or a jacket

I'm so unprepared
Just standing here out in the open
As more and more clouds form
As it turns into a storm

Streets turn into rivers
And valleys into lakes
Everybody's always said
"Just wait for brighter days"

But now look where that got me
All I've ever done is wait
Now I'm drowning in the water
Any help comes too late

{Chorus}
When will this be over
I can take it no longer
I thought when I was older
Things would get better

{Bridge 1}
Looking back from today
Not seeking help was a mistake
Not seeking help was a mistake

{Bridge 2}
If I could go back in time
I would let someone help me
To blow the clouds away
So they can never turn grey

{Chorus}
When will this be over
I can take it no longer
I thought when I was older
Things would get better

When will this be over
I can take it no longer
I thought when I was older
Things would get better
