Why Does It Always Rain On Me? Lyrics

I can't sleep tonight
Everybody's saying everything is alright
Still I can't close my eyes
I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all of these lights
Sunny days, where have you gone?
I get the strangest feeling you belong

Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shinning I can't avoid the lightning

I can't stand myself
I'm being held up by invisible men
Still life on a shelf when
I've got my mind on something else
Sunny days, oh, where have you gone?
I get the strangest feeling you belong

Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shinning I can't avoid the lightning

Oh, where did the blue sky go?
Oh why is it raining so?
It's so cold

I can't sleep tonight
Everybody's saying everything is alright
Still I can't close my eyes
I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all of these lights
Sunny days, oh, where have you gone?
I get the strangest feeling you belong

Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shinning I can't avoid the lightning

Oh, where did the blue sky go?
And why is it raining so?
It's so cold

Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shinning I can't avoid the lightning
Why does it always rain on me?
Why does it always rain on, on

What is the Meaning of Why Does It Always Rain On Me??

When life gives you lemons, Travis seems to get a downpour. This melancholy melody is a metaphorical musing on the persistent gloom that follows our lead singer. He ponders if this relentless rain is karmic retribution for a lie told in his reckless youth. Even on seemingly sunny days, he can't dodge the proverbial lightning bolt of bad luck. The song is a lament for lost sunny days and a longing for the return of blue skies. It's an anthem for those 'woe is me' moments we all have, where it feels like we're singled out by the universe for an extra dose of hardship. So, grab your umbrella and join Travis in questioning why it always has to rain on you!
