Soundgarden - Black Rain Lyrics






If I could hug my love, could I try
For your wings to cover me and let them fold
Half alive I hurt the most brilliant lie
Sleepless eyes, close the light
And rest your mind while you burn

Can't stutter when you're talking with your eyes
By cutting out your tongue you save face
Feeding on the blood lets running from a big day

Cry on black rain, cry on black rain
Cry on black rain

If I could hug my love could I try
for your wings to cover me unless I fall
Sleepless eyes, close the light
And rest your mind while you burn

You can't stutter when you're talking with your eyes
By cutting out your tongue you save face
Feeding on the blood lets running from a big day

Cry on black rain, Cry on black rain
Cry on black rain

You can't stutter when you're talking with your eyes
By cutting out your tongue you save face
Feeding on the blood lets running from a big day

    [Verse]
    If I could hock my love, could I trade
    For your wings to cover me, unless I fall?
    Half aligned, I heard the most brilliant lie
    To sleep these eyes, closed the light
    And lets the mind wide open

    [Pre-Hook]
    You can't stutter when you're talking with your eyes
    By cutting out your tongue, you save face
    Or feeding on the blood that's running from a black day

    [Hook]
    Cry on black rain
    Cry on black rain
    Cry on black rain
    Cry on black rain

    For your wings to cover me, unless I fall?
    To sleep these eyes, closed the light
    And gets the mind wide open

    [Pre-Hook]
    You can't stutter when you're talking with your eyes
    By cutting out your tongue to save face
    Or feeding on the blood that's running from a black day

    [Hook - Variation]
    Cry on black rain
    Cry on black rain
    Cry on, cry on black rain
    Black rain (cry on)
    Black rain (cry on)
    (Cry on)

    [Pre-Hook]
    You can't stutter when you're talking with your eyes
    By cutting out your tongue, you save face

    Keep listen This fucking song in 2020. Miss you, Chris

  12. M.... S....

    Soundgarden is soooo amazing that this song, as amazing as it is, was considered a ‘bside. Hell, the songs they throw away are even amazing. BR is one of my favourites.

    My name is Oly Higgins. I am 45 and I disappear. My son was born in 35 and died from TB. I left my wife Annie. Her ghost is still there at Majestic Mountain Coffee Roasters in Kingston WA. I want my house back Matt Allen. Randal Robert Olson. Little Oly. Captain America. Where is Bucky. We fried Robert Redford. Little Big Man syndrome. Hale Hydra my fat ass

  14. A.... O....

    I know Jarvis and the Avengers. I Loved Bucky the Winter Soldier

  15. A.... O....

    I think I am part Frost Giant and Vulkin and Asgaurdian, and human. Too many Angels took me. Now I am in a box called the Ark of the covenant. I burn people’s faces off. Thank you Harrison Ford vs Farrari

  16. A.... O....

    I don’t even know where I am from? Vulkin, Asgard, Earth. Who knows. ET YODA is my nick name

  17. A.... O....

    Chris was awsome in all those bands and in solo. Both bands were 2 of my favourites bands of alltime. They had great names (and it's rare) with significant and simple meaning (thanks to Chris) and amazing songs that sounded like no one else. I would love your input on the first video of my first album. It got the attention of one of my heroes Joe Bouchard (ex bass player founding members of BÖC) who is following us on Soundcloud but returns from people who likes same music is always the best. If you have just 3 minutes to listen and a bit more to comment, that would mean the world to me. Keep rockin' : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pu_p1wbaCa8 and new song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rJM5HtXMK4

    Lyrics

    If I could hawk my love,
    Could I trade
    For your wings to cover me,
    Unless I fall?
    Half aligned,
    I heard the most brilliant lie
    To sleep these eyes,
    Close the light
    And lets the mind wide open

    You can't stutter when
    You're talking with your eyes
    By cutting out your tongue,
    You save face
    Or feeding on the blood that's
    Running from a black day

    Cry on black rain
    Cry on black rain
    Cry on black rain

    If I could hawk my love,
    Could I trade
    For your wings to cover me,
    Unless I fall?
    To sleep these eyes,
    Close the light
    And gets the mind wide open

    You can't stutter when
    You're talking with your eyes
    By cutting out your tongue,
    You save face
    Or feeding on the blood that's
    Running from a black day

    Cry on black rain
    Cry on black rain
    Cry on,
    Cry on black rain
    Black rain
    Cry on
    Black rain
    Cry on
    Cry on

    You can't stutter when
    You're talking with your eyes
    By cutting out your tongue,
    You save face
    Or feeding on the blood that's
    Running from a black day

  57. D.... S....

    Anybody knows if there is a longer version of that outro song. 😨 (asking for a friend, , , im totally not masterbating or anything)

    RIP Cornell but I'm surprised I don't see any dethklok comments

  60. A.... ....

    What's with the Jawa Sand Crawler?

  61. B.... G....

    I have two kids now and I'll leave this earth happy when my boys have soundgarden 🤘

  62. R.... ....

    Look deep within yourself - is there a black hole?

  63. L.... D....

    Video Directed by Brendon Small of Metalocalypse. - Frelling drad!

  64. C.... H....

    This video gives me a “Metalocalypse” vibe...

  65. k.... c....

    💝💝💝💝

  66. F.... ....

    This is a cool ass song and video, but it does seem to end a bit abruptly...I wonder if that was intentional or if they ran out of time or something like that. I mean I _assume_ that Soundgarden eventually saves the day but it's just a bit weird that we never actually see it happen.

  67. S.... ....

    Some bad ass album if this track didnt make it on Badmotorfinger lol

  68. J.... G....

    Unique and everlasting. A league of their own.

  69. P.... B....

    I almost forgive them for not putting this on Badmotorfinger just because they waited long enough to release it when this video became possible to make.

  70. T.... P....

    I thought Dethklok was casted in this

  71. D.... ....

    Best music video.

  72. K.... E....

    His vocals are UNREAL srlsy!!!! blows me away everytime I hear this song... good lord... his loss doesn't get any easier

  73. n.... d....

    Daaamn...sweet mother Mary have mercy on a homie. This...this right here is straight GANSGTA!!!

  74. g.... ....

    “Feeding off a blond bitch running’ from a black guy!!” It sounds exactly like he’s singing that lmao

  75. E.... E....

    Who new Phil Coulson was a Soundgarden fan? Agent of Shield at 3.00 minutes in :D

    E.... E....

    Lol you goof.

  76. E.... W....

    I play this video for my students every year and they are always blown away.

  77. M.... H....

    It doesnt hurt anymore to listen to your voice. RIP

  78. I.... M....

    how can someone dislike this occult masterpiece? they must be blind lol

  79. W.... s....

    Wow RIP a true legand!

  80. B.... R....

    The Big Four to me is Soundgarden, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, and Pearl Jam.

  81. E.... D....

    Chris Cornell the best vocal😭

  82. M.... R....

    absurdly underrated song!

  83. M.... V....

    Mi canción favorita de esta banda!

  84. F.... S....

    Good God that voice!

  85. n.... ....

    I cry my eyes out every time I see this. It's up to the three that are left now. Ben has super powers. Matt and Kim know that. Time to lock and load.

  86. f.... m....

    CALL GODZILLA

    f.... m....

    And Mecha-Godzilla too!

  87. L.... S....

    What a voice, omg

  88. s.... ....

    I loved this song forever! But... did Soungarden manipulate the downfall of Detklok, or *_save_* them??? One of the most intense combinations of animation & music ever created. Also, search for: TOOL - Right In Two - animated video here on U Tube... Peace

  89. M.... L....

    R.I.P. Chris Cornel 💝 youre music lives on till the end of time 🤘

  90. M.... K....

    Badmotorfinger at its finest :)

  91. G.... S....

    First time watching this on shrooms

  92. J.... B....

    RIP Chris. Ben, Matt, Kim, got you all in my heart.

  93. B.... B....

    i gotta say..one of their best!!! love it,

  94. M.... P....

    its like power rangers, except they're celestial beings, fighting other celestial beings, that were summoned by the alignment of the solar system, all to hardcore metal, this is the best thing to ever exist

  95. E.... ....

    Why did i have to wait 9 years to see this?

  96. A.... V....

    I though it is 5 season of dethklok

  97. A.... M....

    Do anything for Dethklok, as they say
