Summer rain on a hot day
An intense argument outside plays
As words are thrown like weapons of war
Shouts and screams, banging of doors
Chorus
The sky darkens to a grey-blue
As he thinks on parachutes
He just wants to jump and land softly
To start again with renewed belief
A shop continues to work tonight
Oblivious to the ongoing fight
Whilst neighbours turn televisions up
To try and drown out the bad blood
Chorus
The sky darkens to a grey-blue
As he thinks on parachutes
He just wants to jump and land softly
To start again with renewed belief
One sits alone in his den
Time to move on he thinks again
Somewhere positive, away from there
Somewhere he can live without a care
Chorus
The sky darkens to a grey-blue
As he thinks on parachutes
He just wants to jump and land softly
To start again with renewed belief
He falls asleep with dreams of escape
Away from all the negative hate
From the noise and the screams
To taste something so very sweet
Chorus
The sky darkens to a grey-blue
As he thinks on parachutes
He just wants to jump and land softly
To start again with renewed belief
