To feel the rain
On my hands
My love
My enemy
Ohhh

To feel the rain

Fiery heart, mmmhmm
Spoken up, mmmhmm
Nobody's here

It's okay
To feel the rain
On my hands

The lyrics in this song appear to be simple, but they hold a variety of meanings. The first lines state that it is okay to feel the rain on their hands, and that love and enemies are both present. This could suggest that the singer is comfortable with their emotional state, even if it is not always positive. They may be reflecting on the fact that life has its ups and downs, and both coexist. Rain is often symbolic of sadness or difficult times, but it can also represent cleansing and renewal. The singer could be allowing themselves to embrace the full spectrum of feelings they experience, instead of avoiding them.
The spoken lines in the middle of the song give the impression of a person who is alone and speaking to themselves. They mention having a "fiery heart" and speaking up, possibly indicating they have a strong personality and are not afraid to express themselves. The fact that nobody else is present could suggest that they are trying to make sense of their own thoughts and emotions, perhaps wrestling with conflicting feelings.
The final lines repeat the importance of feeling the ring (possibly referring to the rain) on their hands, and that love and enemies still exist. The song ends on this note, possibly suggesting that the singer has come to terms with the duality of life and emotions, and has accepted that they are all part of the same experience.

I've been looking for this music video for years. Remember watching it on TV when I was about 11 years old. I could only remember parts of the videoclip and the melody so I couldn't find it 'cause I didn't knew the lyrics. I'm so glad I finally found it. It's so beautiful and special (still practicing my english).

Same here, I’m so happy I discovered it again!

For 4 months I've had this song on repeat and i'm yet to get tired of it. Such a likable melodic track gets better throughout the entire song. Love it!

Their voices sound so electronic together. It's crazy it sounds like someone sampling something and adding effects to it. Not in a bad way though, it makes the most surreal sound.

I remember seeing this at like 10 or 11 years old being like "oh my gosh are they gonna sacrifice the guinea pigs?! " now I'm just like "songs pretty dope tho"

I met one of the singer's mums. She was so proud of them that she told me to look them up! Love it!
