    Epiphany lyrics

    Your words to me just a whisper
    Your face is so unclear
    I try to pay attention
    Your words just disappear

    'Cause it's always raining in my head
    Forget all the things I should have said

    So I speak to you in riddles
    'Cause my words get in my way.
    I smoke the whole thing to my head
    And feel it wash away
    'Cause I can't take anymore of this,
    I want to come apart,
    Or dig myself a little hole
    Inside your precious heart

    'Cause it's always raining in my head
    Forget all the things I should have said

    I am nothing more than
    A little boy inside
    That cries out for attention,
    Yet I always try to hide
    'Cause I'll talk to you like children,
    Though I don't know how I feel
    But I know I'll do the right thing
    If the right thing is revealed.

    'Cause it's always raining in my head
    Forget all the things I should have said

    He's talking to someone he worships? But he should worship himself, and he knows it. It is painful, but he is stuck in this place until,

    "the right thing is revealed"

    It's all an excuse. But he knows that and it makes him sad to be stuck.

    Just a guess.

    It's weird because I had this song stuck in my head the other day and the part that I kept playing over and over was "I speak to you in riddles cause my words get in my way." What I get from it is that this person has a hard time saying what he's feeling and it's tearing him apart.
