Silent Rain Lyrics

He is God and he is light
He means everything in life
To her awaking mind
He's the one of two she loves
He's the one of two she snogs and hugs
In blind faith

But in the recent dead of nights
There was wonder, there was fright
Daddy's coming for a secret playing
Secret playing

Silent giants
Silent rain
Silence covers shame
Lying colours
Lurking bane
Under the silent rain

Daddy told her not to speak
Not to wail and not to weep
A promise she won't keep
Saw her mother at the door
Staring craven to the core
She won't care no more

So in the endless coming years
There was sorrow, there was fears
Daddy's coming for a secret playing
Secret playing

Silent giants
Silent pain
Silence covers shame
Lying colours
Lurking Bane
Under the silent rain

Solo: Sascha, Weiki, Both

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

A young girl looks up to her father more than anyone else. One day, however, the father molests the daughter, he tells her not to wail, weep, etc. but the girl does anyway because she's terrified. Her mother sees this, and is jealous of the attention, but does nothing to help the daughter. The father used to mean everything to the daughter and was her hero, so she never tells anyone, despite the fact that she doesn't like it, but also because she feels ashamed of herself and confused. Eventually she stops crying and simply takes it "Silence covers shame". This goes on for some time (years).

At least, I'm pretty sure that's what it's about.
