Midnight Rain Lyrics

Rain, he wanted it comfortable
I wanted that pain
He wanted a bride
I was making my own name
Chasing that fame
He stayed the same
All of me changed like midnight

My town was a wasteland
Full of cages, full of fences
Pageant queens and big pretenders
But for some it was paradise

My boy was a montage
A slow-motion love potion
Jumping off things in the ocean
I broke his heart 'cause he was nice
He was sunshine, I was midnight

Rain, he wanted it comfortable
I wanted that pain
He wanted a bride
I was making my own name
Chasing that fame
He stayed the same
All of me changed like midnight

It came like a postcard
Picture perfect, shiny family
Holiday peppermint candy
But for him it's every day

So I peered through a window
A deep portal, time travel
All the love we unraveled
And the life I gave away
'Cause he was sunshine, I was midnight

Rain, he wanted it comfortable
I wanted that pain
He wanted a bride
I was making my own name
Chasing that fame
He stayed the same
All of me changed like midnight

Rain, he wanted it comfortable
I wanted that pain
He wanted a bride
I was making my own name
Chasing that fame
He stayed the same
All of me changed like midnight

I guess sometimes we all get
Just what we wanted, just what we wanted
And he never thinks of me
Except when I'm on TV

I guess sometimes we all get
Some kind of haunted, some kind of haunted
And I never think of him
Except on midnights like this
(Midnight's like this, midnight's like this)

What is the Meaning of Midnight Rain?

This composition is a poignant exploration of contrasting desires and life paths in a relationship. The protagonist yearns for pain, fame, and independence, while her partner seeks comfort, stability, and tradition. Their divergent aspirations lead to the dissolution of their bond. The song's recurring theme of 'midnight' symbolizes transformation and change - a shift from the familiar to the unknown. It also underscores the protagonist's internal conflict between her ambition and her past love. The lyrics reflect upon how personal choices can lead to unanticipated consequences and emotional hauntings. It's a powerful reminder that our decisions shape not only our lives but also affect those around us profoundly. #PersonalChoices #EmotionalConflict #Transformation
