Rain on Me [Music Video] Lyrics
Mmm
Mmm
Mmm
I'm lookin' in the mirror
At this woman down and out
She's internally dyin'
I knew this was not what love's about
I don't wanna be this woman
The second time around
'Cause I'm wakin' up screamin', no longer believin'
That I'm gonna be around
And over and over I tried (you know)
Yet over and over you lied
Gettin' over and over my pride (oh my, yeah)
Over and over I tried (yeah, yeah, yeah)
And over and over you lied (you lied)
Gettin' over and over my pride, yeah
I don't know why, ooh
Rain on me
Lord, won't you take this pain from me
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe
'Til you just rain on me
Lord, won't you take this pain from me
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe, babe
See, I don't want to hug my pillow late at night no more
I'm tossin' and turnin' and thinkin' 'bout burnin' down these walls
I don't wanna fuel this fire no more, no more, no more
See, I made up my mind 'cause I've wasted my time
Ain't nothin' here to keep me warm, yeah
Over and over I tried (you know)
Yet over and over you lied (oh yeah)
Gettin' over and over my pride (over and over)
know why
over and over I tried (yeah, yeah, yeah)
And over and over you lied (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Gettin' over and over my pride, yeah
I cried, I cried, I cried, I cried, I cried
Oh
Rain on me
Lord, won't you take this pain from me
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe
'Til you just rain on me
Lord, won't you take this pain from me
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe, babe
I'm so tired of the rain
In my life
And I'm so tired of the strain
And now you're gonna lie, 'cause
Sometimes I can't sleep at night and
This here it just don't seem right and
Sometimes I just wonder why I
Almost let my life go by
Sometimes I can't sleep at night and
This here it just don't seem right and
Sometimes I just wonder why I
Almost let my life go by
Oh
Rain on me
Lord, won't you take this pain from me
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe
'Til you just rain on me
Lord, won't you take this pain from me
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe, babe
Rain on me
Lord, won't you take this pain from me
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe
'Til you just rain on me
Lord, won't you take this pain from me
And I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe, babe
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
La-la-la-la-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la-la
Ooh

To me, this song talks about a woman who's tried and tried so much in a relationship, only to find that the guy is being an absolute ass. She's just done trying now. It's a song I can relate to in my current situation as well.
