It's a heartbreak, that you can't fix up
It's a last try, when you've lost your luck
And it's a bad day (it's a bad day)
Another bad day
It's a last chance, when they've given up
It's a bad ride, falling out of love
And can you take it?
Cause I can't take it

It's starting up and never stopping again

When the rain starts shaking the ground
I hope that you're ready now
I hope you're ready for it
When you get caught out in the rain
I hope that you're ready now
For all the storms to head your way

It's a long drive, when you've got no gas
It's a cheap date, when you're out of cash
And it's a bad day (it's a bad day)
Another bad day
And it's a feeling, when you've lost your touch
And it's a plane ride, if on the right drugs
And can you take it?
Cause honestly I can't take it

It's starting up and never stopping again

When the rain starts shaking the ground
I hope that you're ready now
I hope you're ready for it
When you get caught out in the rain
I hope that you're ready now
For all the storms to come your way
When the rain starts shaking the ground
I hope that you're ready now
I hope you're ready for it
When you get caught out in the rain
I hope that you're ready now
For all the storms to head your way

And we'll find ourselves inside the raindrops
And we'll fight the seconds inside every clock
What's keeping you from leaving?
The newspapers are reading
Get out save yourself before we're burning in hell
When sun is what you're chasing
But everyday it's raining
Pockets full of silver dimes
I hope you're ready for this time

When the rain starts shaking the ground
I hope that you're ready now
I hope you're ready for it
When you get caught out in the rain
I hope that you're ready now
For all the storms to come your way
When the rain starts shaking the ground
I hope that you're ready now
I hope you're ready for it
When you get caught out in the rain
I hope that you're ready now
For all the storms to head your way
For all the storms to head your way
For all the storms to head your way

    I love this song, it is ideal for one of those "fuck life" moments. It's actually quite a depressing song but it's brilliantly catchy and upbeat. The vocal breakdown and horns make the song. It doesn't sound like Fall Out Boy at all, it's a greta overall sound.

    I reccomend for driving to.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,
