After The Rain Lyrics

Who lies on sheets of ice
Who pays for paradise
After the rain
After the rain
Who suffers fools and freaks
Who hangs in guilty cliques
After the rain
After the rain

Somebody save me
The water's rising
Sweet Jesus take the blame
Who knows whose star is falling
After the rain
After the rain

Who took the gold from their teeth
Who takes the ancient masterpiece
After the rain
After the rain
Who throws the winning dice
Who lies beneath the ice
After the rain
After the rain

Somebody save me
The water's rising
Sweet Jesus take the blame
Who knows whose star is falling
After the rain
After the rain

(Solo)

Somebody save me
The water's rising
Sweet Jesus take the blame
Who knows whose star is falling
After the rain
After the rain

After the rain
After the rain
After the rain

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.

According to lead singer Doc Neeson this song is about the holocaust.

Obvious references are:- "who took the gold from their teeth"

done by the Nazis to finance the war effort. "who takes the ancient masterpiece"
again, prior to sending them to concentration camps, usually to their deaths, the Nazis appropriated Jews' artworks - many artworks went missing during WW2. "Sweet Jesus take the blame"
- religion was (obviously)a distinguishing characteristic of Jews.
