Almost Makes Me Wish For Rain
Lucius Lyrics

Here we are
The singer and someone else are in a certain place and time.

Thought you'd have to rescue me
The singer expected someone to come to their rescue.

But thankfully it didn't get the best of me
The situation did not overwhelm the singer.

It's not worth a fuss
The situation is not important enough to create a fuss.

It's not worth my time
The situation is not worth the artist's time.

I could lose it but
The singer might lose control of themselves in the situation.

I'd be out of line
The singer would be behaving inappropriately in the situation.

So here we are
The artist and someone else remain in a certain place and time.

On the side of the road
They are both by the side of the road.

But the sun is out
The sun is shining.

Lightening my load
The singer's mood is being lifted.

Just a flat tire and a helping hand
The only issue is a flat tire which can be fixed.

I could lose it but it's just not so bad
The singer might lose control of themselves but the situation is not terrible.

Looking for a scene to cause
The singer is trying to find a situation to cause drama.

But the only thing I see, blue skies ahead of us
The singer sees that good times are ahead, but they are still searching for trouble.

Searching for the empty half when somethings filling up the glass
The artist is focusing on the negative when there is something positive happening.

I'm hopeless
The artist feels useless.

It almost makes me wish for rain
The singer is overwhelmed by the good things happening to them, which makes them feel guilty and wish for something bad to occur.

When everything begins to go my way
When good things happen to the singer.

This guilty feeling comes along with it and you know
The artist feels bad about good things happening to them.

So what it is about a broken heart
The artist is now talking about heartbreak.

The harder times, the rougher starts
Difficult or complicated times lead to hard beginnings.

Inspiration feeds off of the deepest scars
Inspiration comes from difficult past experiences.

And the easy streets well, we drive apart
The artist is saying they don't fit in with people who have had easy lives.

Fall on my head
The singer wants something to happen to them, perhaps to break the monotony.

Bring me to life again
The singer wants to feel alive again through new experiences.

The funny thing is that when I am okay
Ironically, when the singer is happy, they wish for something bad to happen.

Oh it makes me wish for rain
The artist wants a bad situation to happen to them.

I can't pretend
The artist cannot pretend.

To settle in
To stay content and comfortable in a situation.

When I am not on the edge of the fray
When the singer is not involved in a dangerous situation.

It almost makes me wish for rain
When the artist is not involved in a risky situation, they wish for something bad to happen.
