Rainin' Lyrics

It’s about addiction and having to hit rock bottom, like all addicts must, in order to have any chance at recovery.

“Things are great on the way up” getting high, nobody wants to experience the comedown, or worse, withdrawals.

“Life in a blackout, like life in a storm” if you’ve never been an addict then you have no idea what a blackout is, some of them can last for days depending on the substance.

“This is the day you break you are born” you’ve hit rock bottom from your addiction. Now what? Go back into that storm, or give that broken body a new rebirth and go into rehab and get help and conquer addiction.
