Marking a surprising left turn on Seek Shelter, both musically and lyrically, Iceage’s jazz-inspired “Drink Rain” is their silliest song yet. With yearning vocals, Elias sings about drinking stormwater from puddles in an attempt to get closer to a love interest, accompanied by a cocktail hour piano...
[Verse 1]
A blueprint for a living with the herd
Life's a moving image that occurred
I’m not too keen on pleasantries
And water is too pure for me
When I'm close to my love
[Chorus]
I drink the rain
I drink the rain, all its remains
Drink rain, puddles as grains
I drink rain
To get closer to you
[Verse 2]
Wetness benefits the firefly
Life is but a flicker then you die
To some the traction of its glow
As ugly as the sullied snow
When I'm close to my love
[Chorus]
I drink the rain
I drink the rain, all its remains
Drink rain like iced champagnе
I drink rain
To get closer to you
To get closеr to you
