The Rain
Chasing Dreams in Friday Night Rain: Aaron Rizzo's Melodic Reflections
Lyrics
I got a message from the man above
I received a message from a higher power or divine entity.
Said, go home and go to bed
The message instructed me to return home and go to sleep.
It made me wonder what it'd all be like
This directive led me to contemplate what life would be like if I weren't present.
If I wasn't here
Reflecting on the hypothetical absence of myself.
'Cause the rain only falls on Friday night
The rain is a metaphor, falling exclusively on Friday night when people engage in foolish behavior.
When the fools come out to play
Friday night is when foolish individuals emerge to engage in reckless activities.
Strike a match to light a cigarette
Attempting to light a cigarette with a match, symbolizing the start of a potentially harmful habit.
But the rain beats you there
The rain arrives before you can complete the act, suggesting consequences or obstacles.
We won't stay eighteen forever
We won't remain young and carefree forever.
Our bones get old and frail
As time passes, our bodies age, becoming more fragile and vulnerable.
Bad news, it's always on time
Bad news consistently arrives promptly.
To get a glimpse of your smile
Despite the challenges, catching a glimpse of your smile brings joy.
'Cause the rain only falls on Friday night
Reiteration that rain symbolizes challenges, falling specifically on Friday night.
When the fools come out to play
Foolish behavior recurs on Friday nights, leading to rain.
Strike a match to light a cigarette
Striking a match again, highlighting the cycle of engaging in potentially harmful actions.
But the rain beats you there
The rain arrives before completing the act, implying consequences.
'Cause the rain only falls on Friday night
Reiteration that rain only falls on Friday nights, emphasizing the theme of consequences for foolish behavior.
When the fools come out to play
Friday night remains the time when foolishness prevails, leading to rain.
Strike a match to light a cigarette
Repeating the cycle of attempting to light a cigarette on a Friday night despite the expected rain.
But the rain, but the rain beats you there
Emphasizing that despite the rain, the foolish actions continue.
