Before the Rain Lyrics

Lyric discussion by pongratz 

Cover art for Before the Rain lyrics by Duran Duran

i think its just about "rough times". and everything with it. maybe in the title, the rain is almost "rock bottom", so it is at the point of the worst possible times.

"And if this drinking Could ease the thinking I toast to my home truth with this glass" : drinking your problems away (?)

"Little pin-pricks And how my ears bleed On the bomb ticks that is my heartbeat" : the pain of the problems (?)

"For all I carry Are murdered secrets The price of my blue Star-eyed weakness" : the problems themselves

idk for sure
