[Verse 1]
         
Raining in Kyo

to
              
It's flooding 

   
the streets
              
I'm nursing a 

            
coffee from a 

        
vending machin

e
              
I saw the god 

             
of rice, a fox

            
 with a key
            
I woke up blin

         
d with a heada

che
            
Grinding my te

eth
             
Confused and a

             
lone and takin

           
g pills to sle

ep
              
They soften yo

             
ur absence but

              
 they don't le

     
t me dream, dr

eam
               


[Verse 2]
         
Raining in Kyo

to
              
My breath turn

       
s into steam
              
I'll buy you a

            
 candle, not e

              
ven sure what 

   
it means
              
I'm cursed to 

    
the matches
              
I'm drowning m

  
y grief
            
An old man sto

             
od close by, s

         
miled at me
              
I rang the bel

          
l like he did
              
I told you I'm

 
 sorry
             
A makeshift fu

              
neral, I tried

            
 to set you fr

    
ee


[Chorus 1]
             
You're half as

 
leep
              
And I bought y

            
ou a radio to 

              
drown out the 

         
machines
            
Hospital light

              
, you asked ab

            
out the way yo

              
u wish that th

              
ey'd let you o

      
utside
         


[Verse 3]
         
Raining in Kyo

to
              
I'm starting t

  
o shake
              
They'll hold a

         
 service tomor

row
             
I'm an ocean a


way
              
Reach into my 

             
pocket, found 

              
a small paper 


crane
            
It's been over

   
 a year now
              
April turns in

   
to May
              
I barely stopp

            
ed moving, I'v

              
e been so fuck

    
ing afraid
              
Too much of a 

             
coward to even

            
 visit your gr

     
ave


[Chorus 2]
            
You're half aw

ake
              
And I bought y

            
ou a radio to 

              
play the blues

     
 away
             
With my hand t

             
o hold, you as

              
ked about the 

            
way you wish t

              
hat they'd let

            
 you die at ho

me

[Bridge]
            

         



[Chorus 3]
            
You're half aw

ake
              
And I bought y

            
ou a radio to
