The Perfect Storm
Media Lab Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I feel the rain fall down on me again
I see your face within the storm
Wash me away - from you
You changed your mind
Ripping away from you
Crash down on my face, touching you I can't replace
I'm gonna stand up, scream your name forgetting why you left this way
Cry, tell me why, everyday, wishing you were by my side
Loving me, only me, taking back what you then took from me




Believing that your eyes, burn through the rain
I see your face, I'm bleeding you, I love you, I miss you today

They want to be washed away and forget about this person. The storm represents the turmoil that the singer's emotions are going through. They go on to mention how the person they loved changed their mind about them and left them. They are in pain and want to forget but they can't help but remember the person's face.


In the chorus, the singer talks about how they will stand up and scream the person's name even though they don't remember why they left. They are crying and wishing that the person was by their side, loving them and taking back what they took from them. The singer is still in love with this person, even though they have left.


The lyrics of the song are quite straightforward and depict the pain and sense of loss someone feels when they are abandoned by someone they love. The storm represents the turmoil in their emotions and how even though they want to forget, they can't. The repeated references to the person's face show that the singer is haunted by the memories of the person who has left them.

This album still gets played in 2024 🔥

@M-Mwa

I first heard bleeding memory when I was 16. I'm 32 now and it's still in my top favourites. Hits so different than anything else you should be really proud💥

@Chaz4543

Bleeding Memory was such a great album. Its a shame it wasnt heard by more people. I always thought a label like RoadRunner should have put it out then it would have got a bigger push.

@thetexanhusky

Very little people have heard of them in general, because there's not even a Wikipedia page about the band.

I enjoy the song though, so I'm interested to look into their only studio album.

@Marcusnumetal

So fucking good!!! Great Job!!! Love this band since Bleeding Memory in 2006.I'm big fan from Brazil.

@svsantyaga

the best nu-metal song for me ever

@paulstewart4077

Wow, chills. I have chills. Man, you should be huge. One of my all time favorites.

@deniskorobkin8574

One of my all time favourite nu metal songs I can listen to over and over again. Beautiful melody, powerful vocals, rage followed by melodic sequences, everything I love about rock music in general in one single song. Brilliant!

@bryanlenihan5012

Sean is such an amazing vocalist

@deniskorobkin8574

@@bryanlenihan5012 shame not all talented guys out there receive the recognition they deserve
