Dry Rain Lyrics

You said you'd make it grow
You said you'd make it green
But I see dusty fields
Broken rock is all I see

And all around me
I see your storm clouds
Another lies about to fall
Dry Rain

It seemed like it was real
Felt like water to my skin
But I stepped through the rainbow
And saw the desert deep within

And all around me
Are roaring waters
But I won't let me
Be swept away
Dry Rain

And all around me
I see the Pharaohs
I see collections
Of hats and guns
Dry Rain

Cover art for Dry Rain lyrics by Meat Puppets

I think it's about a girl leading him on to believe they'll have a real relationship, but she doesn't deliver. There's plenty of other girls interested in him, but he wont be swept away. I think the last part of Pharoahs, hats and guns, are things/hobbies/studies he's been filling the void with as he's biding his time waiting for whatever promises she's made him.
