Rain City Lyrics

Cover art for Rain City lyrics by Turin Brakes

Revisiting this song I loved as a teenager (from the OC :)) Forgot how much I loved it. But anyways I hear a story of someone losing someone they loved (ie someone died “nature’s cruel”). The lyrics anre describing the emotions of depression and sadness in dealing with the loss. They feel helpless, world is falling apart around them, sheets of rain, etc. A beautiful song. I would like to hear what Turin Brakes says the meaning is!
