Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No different, no difference, your no different, no different, no different, no difference.

Rain, rain for 27 days.

rain, rain for 27 days.

Don't you see the broken glass, I travel over the wall, to see the light, the light, rain for 27 days on my broken soul, today, I'll never grow, your eyes, your head, see the broken glass, your eyes your soul no innocence, I feel 27 days, don't you lie, we see the sun but it doesn't matter though, innocence gone,
all fucking lies, it rains, it rains for 27 days, it rains, it rains for 27 days, never go away, never walk away, I feel, I'll assassinate your broken soul, lies and words, broken, feel this pain, never say good-bye, never say good-bye,

is the difference, abhor the difference, the sorry face of religion, you've got no where to go, spinning round your falling down, your words don't hold your soul, see your brain, my soul is down, on your lie, you you lie lie, it's a lie, no fucking difference,





ohhhhhhhh, ohhhhhhhh!

Overall Meaning

The song "Rain for 27 Days" by Velvet Acid Christ appears to convey a deep sense of hopelessness and despair. The repetition of "no different" and "no difference" in the opening lines suggests that the singer feels there's no distinction between themselves and those around them, emphasizing their isolation and lack of belonging. The repeated line "rain, rain for 27 days" serves as a metaphor for their prolonged sadness and despair, which seems unrelenting and ever-present.


The second stanza of the song appears to suggest a feeling of being trapped, with the broken glass and wall representing barriers that the singer is unable to overcome. They reference the "light" as something they are searching for, but seem unable to obtain. The line "I'll never grow" could suggest a sense of emotional stagnation or an inability to move on from their current emotional state. They mention the "fucking lies" and "innocence gone," indicating that they have lost faith in something or someone, and the rain symbolizes a general sense of hopelessness and despair.
