Cover art for Rain Drops + Sun Showers lyrics by Smashing Pumpkins, The

Hello. I am going to devote the next couple of days of my life to cracking the concept of Machina and Machina II, so if you like my theories on this song, check out my other thoughts.

In my personal opinion, this song has nothing to do with the concept of Machina. Although, I'll still take a crack at the meaning. Billy, on VH1 Storytellers said that this song is about, exactly how it sounds, trying to walk in between the raindrops. More so, trying to do something impossible. The example Billy used was trying to talk to some one closed minded that will never understand.

"I'm Just Trying to talk with you"
