about

this song (the title) started out as a joke prompt for our pianist athena to attempt to write a song, then witnessing some relationship issues inspired zoe to write a lyric based on the prompt instead. the title is still pretty silly, but actually made for a pretty cool metaphor (we hope you think so too....)

lyrics

She’s in a drought
she’s waiting for the rain
she wants to hear his voice
but he’s got nothing to say

She’s in a drought
she’s praying for the best
but there’s nothing here
only desert and dust

Is this what love comes down to?
Is this all that’s left?
this is what love comes down to
and she still wears rainboots

She’s in a drought
but hallucinating rain
it’s so much easier
to see the flowers again

He’s dried her out
but he doesn’t see what he’s done
he’s been blinded
by the desert sun

Is this what love comes down to?
Is this all that’s left?
this is what love comes down to
But she still wears rainboots
