Rain Down
Jnz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Because lately where we stand is like a mystery
We're lying on this bed that used to sit on the floor
Took us an hour and a half just to get it through the front door
Before you go just lie back down
I think you want to show me something
I think you want to slow the motion
Don't act like I don't want the healing
You know we never fought the feeling
Rain down on my skin and when you think I've had enough now
Keep falling falling falling
We're both looking for a sign this time its fight or flight
I can hear it the frequencies of your voice tonight
If you get on that plane it will surely be the end
Can't be a love through the phone, darling not again
Before you go just lie back down
I think you want to show me something
I think you want to slow the motion
And before you go just tell me now
Don't act like I don't want the healing
You know we never fought the feeling
Rain down (Oh) on my skin and when you think I've had enough now
Keep falling falling falling
(falling falling falling)
The lyrics of Jnz's "Rain Down" convey a sense of longing and an intense desire to reconnect with someone. The singer seems to be speaking directly to a former lover, asking whether they still think about each other and whether they still hold a place in each other's minds. There is a hint of uncertainty in the air, as if the two people involved are unsure of where they stand with each other now.
The lyrics also paint a vivid picture of two people lying on a bed that used to sit on the floor - a symbol of the changes that have occurred since they last saw each other. Despite this, the singer is hopeful that they can bridge the gap between them and reignite their connection. The line "Can't be a love through the phone, darling not again" speaks to the idea that technology may have made communication easier, but it cannot replace the intimacy and emotional depth of being together in person.
Throughout the song, there is a sense of urgency and a plea for the other person not to leave yet, to stay just a little longer and show them something, to help them heal. The repeated refrain of "Rain down on my skin" is a powerful image of wanting to feel something - whether it be rain or love - and to keep it coming, not to stop.
Overall, "Rain Down" is a poignant and emotional song that conveys the longing and confusion that can come with a complicated relationship.

Am I still inside your head, its where I want to be
I am hoping to occupy your thoughts and stay relevant in your life
Because lately where we stand is like a mystery
Our relationship status is unconfirmed and confusing
We're lying on this bed that used to sit on the floor
Our surroundings are constantly changing
Took us an hour and a half just to get it through the front door
We put a lot of effort into making things work
Before you go just lie back down
Stay with me a little longer
I think you want to show me something
You have something important to share with me
I think you want to slow the motion
You want to take things slow and enjoy the moment
And before you go just tell me now
Share your thoughts before you leave
Don't act like I don't want the healing
I am open to working on our relationship
You know we never fought the feeling
We always had a connection
Rain down on my skin and when you think I've had enough now
I want to be refreshed and renewed
Keep falling falling falling
Let the emotions pour out
We're both looking for a sign this time its fight or flight
We are at a crossroads and have to decide whether to stay or go
I can hear it the frequencies of your voice tonight
I am trying to read your feelings through your tone
If you get on that plane it will surely be the end
If you leave, it could be the end of our relationship
Can't be a love through the phone, darling not again
Distance has made it difficult for us before, we can't handle it again
