Chance of Rain
Journey Through Storms: To Make Ends Meet's 'Chance of Rain' Explained
Lyrics
I just can't believe how you've gotten so far
I'm surprised at how successful you've become.
The next big thing a fucking rising star
You're the next big thing, a rising star.
Meanwhile I'm still sleeping in my god damned car
Despite your success, I'm still struggling and living in my car.
But you can always reach me at the local bar
You can always find me at the local bar.
Xanax eyeballs rolling back into your head
Your eyes are glazed from Xanax, and you've abandoned me.
Something better to do so you left me for dead
You chose to leave me for something more exciting.
Rainy day friend how've you been
As a friend for gloomy days, how are you doing?
Hope you've grown a heart or some thicker skin
I hope you've become more compassionate or resilient.
Try to find that lost inner child within
Search for the inner child you've lost, or rely on pills to absolve sins.
Or take another pill to absolve you of all sin
Consider taking another pill to absolve yourself of wrongdoing.
You wanna go out? You wanna stay in?
Do you want to go out or stay in?
You wanna do nothing? I won't tell them where you've been
If you want to do nothing, I'll keep your whereabouts secret.
You wanna stay up? You wanna get down?
Whether you want to stay up or get down.
You wanna hang out? Cuz I won't always be around
I won't always be available to hang out.
Little puppy dogs and champagne and cocaine
References to indulgent behaviors like puppy dogs, champagne, cocaine, and molly.
Rolling on some molly and singing in the rain
Engaging in carefree activities like singing in the rain while under the influence.
There are some things I don't like and some that I disdain
Expressing dislike and disdain for certain things.
But everything I do for you seems to be in vain
Despite my efforts, everything I do for you seems futile.
Why try when there's nothing to gain...
Questioning the motivation to try when there's nothing to gain.
Mostly cloudy with a chance of rain.
The weather metaphorically reflects a gloomy outlook with a chance of difficulties or challenges.
