liar
Rains Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Emotions are crumbling
An avalanche in the evening
Tonight
The story of a life made up in his head
He'd die for belief from her he knows he needs her
Everything he wanted is a lie
Convincing her is his only goal tonight
Don't, label me a liar
Don't, label me a liar
Don't, label me a liar
Don't, label me a liar
Think about days when happiness came
Through your eyes and into mine
Those were the best days of my life
Think about days when there was no time
And we would leave our house of lies
Those were the best days of my life
Now the days are cold and the nights are long
And I pray that you'll be coming home
Can I convince you of this lie
Don't, label me a liar
Don't, label me a liar
Don't, label me a liar
Don't, label me a liar
Are your night that long
I'm a liar
Are your nights that cold
I'm a liar
Are your night that long
I'm a liar
Are your nights that cold
I'm a liar
Don't, label me a liar
Don't, label me a liar
Don't, label me a liar
Don't, label me a liar
The lyrics to Rain's song "Liar" describe a person who is struggling with their emotions and their own reality. The first verse paints a picture of someone who is metaphorically lying on the bottom of a riverbed, an image that represents sinking deep into their own thoughts and feelings. The person is crumbling emotionally and feels like their life is a lie. They are willing to die for the belief that they need the other person in the song, but they know deep down that everything they wanted from that person is not real.
The chorus repeats the plea, "Don't label me a liar," suggesting that the person is afraid of being judged or misunderstood. They are trying to convince the other person of a lie, which is perhaps the lie that their love is real. The following verse is a reflection on happier times and the nostalgia for a time when the two people were in love. The singer wants to return to that time, but they are finding it difficult to convince the other person of their feelings.
Overall, the lyrics of "Liar" are about the struggle to come to terms with reality and emotions. The person in the song is trying to hold onto something that is slipping away, and they are willing to deceive themselves and others in order to preserve their feelings. The repetition of the words "Don't label me a liar" suggests that the singer is insecure and afraid of being judged.
