Rain On Me
Zox Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And won't you draw the curtain down on me
A silence never spoke so loud
And it's what I need
So let me be
With my disease
And I said
Cause I've realized I can't rely on you
For what I need
Yeah I said
Please don't let it rain on me
I ain't got no shelter from this storm
On market street cars all stand still
And this city is so beautiful tonight
I'll drink you up to get my fill
But I don't believe
It's come to these
So naturally
And I said
Please don't let it rain on me
Because I've realized I can't rely on you
For what I need
Yeah I said
Please don't let it rain on me
Cause I ain't got no shelter from this storm
And into this mind and body I was born
And I've realized by now that I have lost control
But I'll be okay
Yeah I'll be okay
Please don't let it rain on me
Because I've realized I can't rely on you
For what I need
Yeah I said
Please don't let it rain on me
Cause I ain't got no shelter from this storm
So rain on me
Yeah, yeah
So rain on me
Yeah, yeah
So rain on me
Yeah, yeah
The rain on me
The song "Rain on Me" by Zox describes the feeling of being lost and alone, and the realization that one cannot rely on others to provide solace during difficult times. The lyrics "Let the color all drain out and won't you draw the curtain down on me" imply a desire to retreat from the world and its pressures, to be left alone with one's sadness. The line "A silence never spoke so loud, and it's what I need" suggests that sometimes the absence of noise and distraction can be helpful in coming to terms with difficult emotions.
The chorus of the song repeatedly asks for the rain to not fall on the singer, a metaphor for the hardship and pain they are experiencing. The line "I ain't got no shelter from this storm" reveals the vulnerability and helplessness the singer feels in the face of their struggles. The verse "On market street cars all stand still, and this city is so beautiful tonight, I'll drink you up to get my fill" describes a moment of beauty in the midst of sadness, that is ultimately not enough to provide comfort.
The final verse "And into this mind and body I was born, and I've realized by now that I have lost control, but I'll be okay, yeah I'll be okay" shows the singer coming to terms with the idea that life is unpredictable and often difficult, but that they will persevere despite this. The repeated phrase "rain on me" could be interpreted as an acceptance of life's hardships, and a willingness to weather the storm.
