A Life Full Of Rain

[Intro] | | / | / | | 2x [Verse 1] A life full of rain Coming down on my shoulders A life full of rain Here in a room where no one cares I’m not wanted here I got no place to go I’ve found all is empty In a life full of rain [Chorus] Your sky is never clear And you can hear that thunder You know that means trouble The kind of trouble that won’t disappear So you ask for forgiveness And you know there’s none coming A life full of rain And the forecast is severe [Instrumental] | | / | / | | [Verse 2] The gravel roads That lie stretched out bеfore you They are thе roads That you’ve gone down before Goddamn it you didn’t ask You didn’t ask to come here So you curse your own mother For the day that you were born [Chorus] It’s all been a trick A little sleight of hand Like the clown in the circus Who tells a story but no one understands So you disappear into the solitude And you go into the shadows Of a life full of rain With no dry spot to stand [Solo] | | / | / | | | | | | | [Verse 3] There’s a blue-eyed world That said it once loved you But that was in your youth Such a long long time ago As the days went by With your pride walking beside you Pride you could not swallow And refused to let go [Chorus] So here you are Stuck in a world of your own ego A world where there’s no rumors Of other lost souls Who’ve turned into ghosts And float sadly through the evening And you thought you were exempt From a life full of rain a life full of rain That’s coming down on your shoulders [Ending] | | / | / | | 2x | |

Cette chanson évoque la tristesse et le désespoir d'une vie marquée par la solitude et la mélancolie. Le protagoniste ressent un profond sentiment d'abandon et de vide, comme si les épreuves de la vie pleuvaient sur ses épaules sans répit. Les routes qu'il emprunte semblent lui rappeler des choix passés, tout en lui faisant ressentir un regret amer pour des rêves perdus. Il se retrouve alors piégé dans un univers où la fierté le maintient à distance des autres, même s'il aspire à une connexion qui semble désormais hors de portée. Le contexte pourrait être celui d'une période de crise personnelle, où l'individu se confronte à ses propres démons et l'impression que sa existence n'est qu'une succession de montagnes russes émotionnelles. La lutte contre la perception d'un monde indifférent le force à réfléchir sur lui-même et sur son passé, ajoutant une profondeur poignante à sa quête de sens et de rédemption.
