Rain Lyrics
Rain, running down my face
You've been there for days now
And I can feel the weight
But just as things should get back to normal,
They're not quite for me!
Rain, wash away my fear
And pour me a fortune
So I could just stay here
Just as you are coming back to get me,
Well I scream, "I know!"
Know that things will never be that simple
Not for me, they just stay the same
Do you know I've never been so
Wrong to think you'd just come running
Running back to me, running back to me
Running back to me, running back to me
All along.
Rain, I'm filled with lust and pain
So take me back to three years
When we all looked the same
Oh, rain! Wash away my fears!
I'll pour you an ocean
Through my guts and tears!
Just as things should get back to normal,
They're not quite for me!
Knowing things could never be that simple,
Not for me, they just stay the same
Do you know I've never been so
Wrong to think you'd just come running
Running back to me, running back to me
Running back to me, running back to me
All along
We won't come back from this
We won't come back from this
So wash my hands of this
Wash my hands of...
Do you know I've never been so
Wrong to think you'd just come running
Running back to me, running back to me
Running back to me, running back to me
All along
Do you know I've never been so
Do you know I've never been so wrong, wrong...
You've been there for days now
And I can feel the weight
They're not quite for me!
And pour me a fortune
So I could just stay here
Well I scream, "I know!"
Not for me, they just stay the same
Wrong to think you'd just come running
Running back to me, running back to me
Running back to me, running back to me
All along.
So take me back to three years
When we all looked the same
I'll pour you an ocean
Through my guts and tears!
They're not quite for me!
Not for me, they just stay the same
Wrong to think you'd just come running
Running back to me, running back to me
Running back to me, running back to me
All along
We won't come back from this
So wash my hands of this
Wash my hands of...
Wrong to think you'd just come running
Running back to me, running back to me
Running back to me, running back to me
All along
Do you know I've never been so wrong, wrong...

This is one of my top favorites on the ep. I love how he goes from mellow to yelling and then back again.
Well, it seems as if "rain" means "tears" and it's a breakup song and maybe they want to get back together but it doesn't feel like it did before. Could be way off, though.
sounds as if the speaker's having issues -- perhaps all made up inside his head -- in a relationship. he feels burdened, it seems. he knows this. he can feel it. his girl is probably getting sick of his indecision. hence the "I've never been so wrong to think you'd just come running back to me." perhaps she came back many times before. but, enough's enough. he just can't get his head to be with his heart, which is wanting to be with the girl.
maybe? :)
