Tears = Rain

It's a no brainer that people associate tears to rain.
People cry, tears drop.
The sky cry, rain drops.
There is a saying, "When you are happy, you enjoy the music. When you are sad, you understand the lyrics."
Even though, my lyrics are mostly Korean. The translation helps.
Songs involving rain does describe sad moments.
Coincident or not, titles with Rainy Days are sad but good ballads.

Beast - On Rainy Days




Ailee - Rainy Days




Skylar Grey was right,
"Cause everyday it rains here
Underneath that clear blue sky
Even though it's summer
All I hear is thunder
Underneath this clear blue sky"

As I look outside right now,
the beautiful sun is setting with clear blue sky.
Yet, my heart continues to pour heavy rain.

Skylar Grey - Don't Look Down

Another music gem from the underrated section.
Skylar Grey former known as Holly Brook.
She changed her image since becoming Skylar. She was the original singer for "Love the Way You Lie Pt.2." Her voice is soft and soulful. Majority of her songs may not be happy or rock but you can feel her soul in songs. Her album "Don't Look Down" is the first one under Skylar. Her songs are mostly sad but optimistic. I can't really describe what kind of genre but it's for the best. Soft listening is a good category.
I really love the album since it's soft and somewhat relaxing.
My go-to song currently is Clear Blue Sky.
It sort of describing my feelings right now.

But I’m not saying that I’m gonna start going to church
Not saying that I should pull it to work
Just saying for once I’m putting myself first
Putting myself first, putting myself first
So I'm leaving this town for good,
Gotta gotta get out of this neighbourhood
just like you never ever thought I could, 
Never thought I could, never thought that

I don’t wanna stay here
Cause everyday it rains here
Underneath that clear blue sky
Even though it’s summer
All I hear is thunder
Underneath this clear blue sky.
