Summer Rain
I Blame Coco Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Have I lost the pain?
Punch through a red brick wall.
I don't feel a thing.
But to you, it's all the same.
Just like a hunter only knows what's its prey.
We share the blame.
Just like the darkness is your mind is blind with shame.
Do tell me, have you lost it all?
Have you changed your name?
It's funny how this loneliness can bring you fame.
So, how can I trust you?
Love me if you must be fooled.
Here's the mic and here's your cue:
Summer rain and Christmas tears.
Holiday addiction and fear.
Just throw away love and golden years.
Just take time.
You might miss your life.
I think I've missed mine.
So tell me, did you get my calls?
Did you hear the ring?
Comes from a showcase brawl just to hear me sing.
So tell me, will come on tall?
Would you be my king?
It's funny what will buy your love will slowly bring.
So, how can I trust you?
Love me if you must be fooled.
Here's the mic and here's your cue:
Summer rain and Christmas tears.
Holiday addiction and fear.
Just throw away love and golden years.
Just take time.
You might miss your life.
I think I've missed mine.
You should have known that I was trouble.
You should have told by the look in my eye.
You should be careful who you fall for 'cause only one ? and twice is too shy
So don't lie to me.
I am your responsibility.
So don't lie to me.
Stay strong for me and smother me.
Cuddle me.
So here's to my sobriety.
So, how can I trust you?
Love me if you must be fooled.
Here's the mic and here's your cue:
Summer rain and Christmas tears.
Holiday addiction and fear.
Just throw away love and golden years.
Just take time.
You might miss your life.
I think I've missed mine.
I think I've missed mine.
The lyrics to "Summer Rain" by I Blame Coco are about a relationship that has fallen apart due to trust issues and the struggle to move on. The singer questions if she has lost everything, including the pain of the breakup, and questions if her partner feels the same way. She compares their shared responsibility for the relationship to a hunter and prey, highlighting the power dynamic between them.
The chorus discusses the theme of missed opportunities and how it's easy to get caught up in addiction and fear. The singer urges the listener to take time and not miss out on life, as she feels she has missed her chance. The bridge discusses the aftermath of the breakup and the need for trust and responsibility in moving forward.
Overall, the song explores the complexity of relationships and how difficult it can be to move on from them. The chorus's repetition reinforces the idea that missing out on life can be a regret later on, encouraging listeners to take advantage of the present moment.
