The song described by Jon: "This is about a particular situation. My partner at the time had a friend who was using heroin and was a nice enough girl. But, like what seemed to be the case with every heroin user I've experienced or been around, sooner or later their addiction gets the better of them, their morals go out the window and they start trying pretty much anything, just to get their fix. She came to our house one night. It was pissing down with rain. I think we played a game of Scrabble and I saw her go into our daughter's room and try and steal some money. I turfed her out, and that is basically it. It was sort of a weird mixture of disappointment and the realisation that that is what addiction can do to a person. It can actually rob them of their morals."
Lyrics
Don't tell me where you've been 'cause I know just where you've been The truths you tell are few and far between Nodding off in front of me does not provoke my sympathy You better get yourself a new line 'cause that shit just ain't worth selling And it goes... Pain, pain, wash away It hurts so much to watch you play Dream, dream, stay with me Tell me another story Don't think I'm taken in I don't think it's turning out the way you planned it I'm not yours to plan with And I pray for the rain, maybe And I pray for the rain - To wash you far away
