The Rain Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Pöytiin, seiniin kirjoitin elämän tarinat mun
Kun kukaan kuunnellut sittenkään
Ei koskaan
Tyhjiin korviin kaikuivat vain lauseet unohdetun
En enää uskonut itsekään
Koko roskaa

Tässä on helpompaa kun mun unelmat

Silmissä seisot mun vierellä noin
Niinkuin salaa mä toivoin

Rakkaus puuttui päätin jo sen että välitä en
Enkä itkisi elämää
En koskaan
Niin paljon muuttui luovutin kaiken sun käsiisi sen
Illan jälkeen sain hengittää

Tässä on helpompaa kun mun unelmat
Silmissä seisot mun vierellä noin
Niinkuin salaa mä toivoin
Mua helpottaa nään mun haavat sun haavoissas
Täytyikö sen mennä niin
Mun tuskalla sut kruunattiin
Kun toisiimme kii tartuttiin

Tässä on helpompaa kun mun unelmat
Silmissä seisot mun vierellä noin
Niinkuin salaa mä toivoin
Mua helpottaa nään mun haavat sun haavoissas

Tuskalla sut kruunattiin
Mä tartuin sun ristiin

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Unelmat ja haavat" (Dreams and Wounds) by The Rain explore themes of despair, hope, and love. In the first verse, the singer writes their life's stories on tables and walls, but nobody listens to them. Their words fall on deaf ears, and they lose their faith in themselves and others. They give up on love, convinced that it is absent from their life. The chorus, however, shows a glimmer of hope. The singer finds solace in their dreams, envisioning a person by their side. They admit to secretly wishing for love again.

The second verse reveals a significant change in the singer's life. They have given up on everything and have decided not to care anymore. However, things shift again after a night where they can finally breathe. The chorus repeats, showing that even though they have wounds, the fact that another person can see and understand them has lightened the load. The final line of the song, "I held onto your cross," suggests that the singer has found a renewed faith in themselves and in the possibility of love.

Overall, "Unelmat ja haavat" captures the essence of a deeply personal experience, touching on themes of love, pain, and hope.

Pöytiin, seiniin kirjoitin elämän tarinat mun
I wrote my life stories on tables and walls, but nobody ever listened.

Kun kukaan kuunnellut sittenkään
Nobody really listened to me.

Ei koskaan
Never.

Tyhjiin korviin kaikuivat vain lauseet unohdetun
My words fell on deaf ears and were forgotten.

En enää uskonut itsekään
I didn't even believe it myself.

Koko roskaa
It was all rubbish.

Tässä on helpompaa kun mun unelmat
It's easier here in my dreams.

Silmissä seisot mun vierellä noin
You're standing next to me with a look in your eyes.

Niinkuin salaa mä toivoin
Just like I secretly hoped.

Rakkaus puuttui päätin jo sen että välitä en
Love was missing, so I decided not to care anymore.
