Ary Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
fell to the ground
What were you thinking
Head under water
who's gonna drown
Slowly, but sinking
I'm not ok
and every feeling hits me harder than a seven carriage train
I'm just a loser
walk away
oh all I ever really dream of is that summer in the rain
When our always was the only one we knew
Blood did not stain
Up above reality with you
Never known pain
There were clouds before rain
There were clouds before rain, yeah
I'll never get over it
No matter what I do
Thought i was helping
But I was a fool for thinking you'd ever happy,
In that tiny room
And I'll envy forever
Whoever's with you
And I won't improve
Got none to blame
And every feeling hits me harder than a seven story pavement
Its a movie, on replay
And all it's ever gonna show me is our summer in the rain
When our always was the only one we knew
Blood did not stain
Up above reality with you
Never known pain
There were clouds before rain
There were clouds
There were clouds, I saw clouds
In "Clouds Before Rain," Ary portrays a sense of loss, heartbreak, and longing for a past relationship. The opening lines, "Heaven distorted fell to the ground, what were you thinking," suggest that something beautiful and perfect (heaven) has now shattered and fallen apart. The following line, "Head under water, who's gonna drown, slowly, but sinking," showcases the feeling of being overwhelmed and slowly drowning in sadness and despair.
The chorus highlights the singer's self-perception as a fool and loser. They struggle to cope with their emotions and the impact of their feelings, comparing it to a train hitting them with immense force. Their dream is to relive a past summer in the rain, further emphasizing their desire to go back to a happier, more nostalgic time.
The second verse continues with the singer's self-doubt and feelings of inadequacy. They believe that no matter what they do, they will never be able to move on from the pain of the past. They acknowledge their inability to help their former partner and express a lingering envy for whoever is currently with them.
