Lyrics
London rain's falling down
Expressing the presence of rain in London.
Let me rot with the soggy ground I
Desire to decay along with the wet soil.
Want to lay here forever
Longing to remain in this state indefinitely.
I've never been good at endings
Admitting difficulty in handling conclusions.
Goodbyes full of pretending now
Parting moments filled with insincerity.
Growing pains are deadly
Acknowledging that emotional growth can be painful.
My soul says that I'm ready
Feeling spiritually prepared for what lies ahead.
I don't wanna leave this place
Reluctance to depart from the current location.
This city will never feel the same
Anticipating that the city won't be the same without the speaker.
I'll think of you when the sky is grey
Associating memories with the gray sky.
I wish there was another way out
Expressing a desire for an alternative solution.
London rain's falling down
Reiteration of the presence of rain in London.
Let me rot with the soggy ground I
Reiterating the wish to decay along with the wet soil.
Want to lay here forever
Reaffirming the longing to remain in the current state indefinitely.
Built a home where I can't stay
Having established a home but unable to stay.
North West has seen me in every state
Indicating the speaker's extensive travels in the North West.
Met when I was 19
Recalling the meeting with someone at the age of 19.
Do you recognize me?
Asking if the person recognizes the speaker.
Still got a Franken heart
Mentioning a heart with elements of the artificial or reconstructed.
Packed my life in four suitcases
Condensing life into a few suitcases for a move.
I'll pay the price just to make it
Willing to endure hardships to achieve a goal.
I'll break my wrists to keep my grip
Committing to maintaining control despite challenges.
Did all I could to stay
Doing everything possible to stay in a particular situation.
London rain's falling down
Repeating the imagery of rain falling in London.
Let me rot with the soggy ground I
Reiterating the desire to decay along with the wet soil.
Want to lay here forever
Reaffirming the wish to remain in the current state indefinitely.
I can't grieve it
Expressing an inability to mourn or lament.
I feel cheated
Feeling deceived and expressing dissatisfaction.
Swear my story's only just begun
Asserting that the speaker's story has just begun.
London rain's falling down
Repetition of the imagery of rain falling in London.
Let me rot with the soggy ground I
Reiteration of the desire to decay along with the wet soil.
Want to lay here forever
Reaffirming the longing to remain in the current state indefinitely.
London rain's falling down
Repeating the presence of rain in London.
Let me rot with the soggy ground I
Reiterating the wish to decay along with the wet soil.
Want to lay here forever
Reaffirming the desire to remain in the current state indefinitely.
