Everytime it Rains
Primal Fear Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The mess of desperation trapped into my skin.
The crash history will break me
And take me from the stay are being.
Everytime it rains, just is calling,
I can't stop myself from falling,
Into the darkness,
I'll be a world you wanna feel and pain
Everytime it rains.
The ways of vacillation press around me,
Around me.
The loneliness of silence it cause
In my brain.
The sorry said a mangler
And wonder why I fall your faith
Everytime it rains, just is calling,
I can't stop myself from falling,
Into the darkness,
Into the madness.
I'll be a world you wanna feel and pain
Everytime it rains.
Everytime it rains, just is calling,
I can't stop myself from falling,
Into the darkness,
Into the madness.
I'll be a world you wanna feel and pain
Everytime it rains.
Everytime it rains
Everytime it rains
Everytime it rains
The lyrics of Primal Fear's song "Everytime it Rains" are a poignant portrayal of an individual struggling with their inner demons of insecurity, desperation, and vacillation. The opening lines of the song, "Close of insecurity, obscured me disarmed me," immediately sets the tone for the rest of the song. The person is feeling vulnerable and exposed, trapped within their own skin. The "crash history" the individual is experiencing is symbolic of a past trauma or emotional breakdown that continues to haunt them.
The repetition of the phrase "Everytime it rains, just is calling," alludes to the idea that the person is being pulled back into their past every time it rains. They are unable to escape the memories and feelings that have been triggered by the rain, represented as darkness and madness. The line "I'll be a world you wanna feel and pain" suggests that the individual is willing to bear the pain of their past experiences to feel something again.
The phrase "The ways of vacillation press around me" suggests that the individual is unsure of the path they should take, and the weight of their indecision is pressuring them. The "loneliness of silence" indicates that the person is struggling to communicate their inner turmoil with others, and they feel isolated. The line "The sorry said a mangler and wonder why I fall your faith" suggests that the individual feels remorseful for not living up to the expectations of those around them, further contributing to their inner turmoil.
Overall, "Everytime it Rains" is a song that portrays the anxiety and vulnerability of a person struggling with their past experiences and their ability to move forward.

๐ถ Lyrics ๐ถ
Clouds of insecurity obscure me
Assure me
The mist of desperation
Dripping down my skin
The crushing storm will break me
And take me from this state I'm in
Everytime the rain comes calling
I can't stop myself from falling
Into the darkness - into the madness
Of a world devoid of fear and pain
Everytime it rains
The waves of isolation
Crash around me - around me
The loneliness of silence
Echoes in my brain
With shore in sight I'm under
And wonder why I fought in vain
Everytime the rain comes calling
I can't stop myself from falling
Into the darkness - into the madness
Of a world devoid of fear and pain
Everytime it rains
