Rain
Emotional Downpour: Bryan Lazar's Rain Reveals the Bittersweet Symphony
Lyrics
I looked away
I deliberately looked away from something.
As it came pouring down in the rain
Describing the rain pouring down.
She told me that the walls will start to cave
A warning that walls will collapse, possibly metaphorical.
And I tried to stay
An attempt to endure or face a challenging situation.
As one man can be when he's this way
Trying to maintain composure in a difficult emotional state.
But her blank face just stared, glared, blared
Describing a person's expressionless face that stared intensely.
Anyway
Regardless of the situation, the person stared anyway.
Now I know that I want to feel this
Expressing a realization about wanting to experience a certain feeling.
She just wants to try and leave us
Someone else's desire to leave or separate.
Tears just fall right down and wash the pain
Tears symbolically falling to alleviate emotional pain.
Or is that just the rain?
Uncertainty about whether the emotional release is due to tears or rain.
Now we tried our best
Describing an attempt to hold things together that ultimately fails.
Just to fall apart for the big test
Breaking apart, possibly under the pressure of a significant test or challenge.
And all in all it feels just like
Overall, the situation feels like there is nothing remaining.
There's nothing left
Suggesting a sense of emptiness or loss.
So now I will try
Expressing a willingness to try and face an impending separation.
To prepare myself for the goodbye
Preparing mentally for saying goodbye.
So I'll sit down and write, fight, write
Planning to express emotions through writing or fighting metaphorically.
This lullaby
Describing the emotional expression in a written form like a lullaby.
Now I know that I want to keep us
Realizing a desire to keep a connection intact.
She just wants to go and kill us
Another person's intention to end or destroy the connection.
Tears just fall right down and wash the pain
Tears falling again to wash away emotional pain.
Wash the pain
Reiteration of tears possibly being the cause of emotional relief.
Or is that just the rain?
Repeating the uncertainty of whether the emotional release is due to tears or rain.
