Acceptance - Fire And Rain Lyrics






Yeah we came for the fire but we stayed for the rain
And we count our time while we're feeling so sane
With a cannonball head and a paperback heart
Will you see where you've been when you get to the start

Last season of this masquerade
One decision from our lips

Will you cover your heart when you see what I've done
Will you look at my eyes as I stare at the sun
I see you falling asleep while I'm staying awake
I hear you calling my name when you make a mistake

I can see your breath, I'm looking around
You're running my way, I can't hear a sound
With a cannonball crash and a paperback spine
If I touch your face, tell me what will I find

Last season of this masquerade
One decision from our lips

Will you cover your heart when you see what I've done
Will you look at my eyes as I stare at the sun
I see you falling asleep while I'm staying awake
I hear you calling my name when you make a mistake

Meet me down by the furthest flame
And I'll take the blame, I'll take the blame

We came for the fire and drowned in the rain
We went in alone and came out the same

Will you cover your heart when you see what I've done
Will you look at my eyes as I stare at the sun
I see you falling asleep while I'm staying awake
I hear you calling my name when you make a mistake

Acceptance Fire And Rain Comments
  1. E.... L....

    Not even sure what this songs about. Or why it makes me cry. But hey. It's incredible to be alive

  2. C.... H....

    My all time favorite band. I listen to AT LEAST one of their songs once a day for the past 10 years.

  3. G.... S....

    Quem é brasileiro e que amo essa banda deixa like ai

  4. A.... K....

    Woah, the double exposure not only works with the sound of the song but also really works well with the question/answer element in the chorus. Very nice.

  5. S.... S....

    What a band what a music
    Fucking amazing

  6. D.... K....

    This song could get big. It's a whole catchier than most of their songs on this album.

  7. C.... C....

    Tour dates? Never got a chance to see you guys live back in the day and would love a chance!

  8. J.... C....

    Awesome. Long wait is over

  9. A.... ....

    I missed them so much. It’s been way too long. Phantoms was an amazing album. This album is great too. Acceptance is life ❤️

  10. F.... ....

    I'm falling in love with them all over again! Please come and tour Asia! You have loads of fans here! Shoutout from Singapore!

  11. D.... O....

    Acceptance is the best Band

  12. �.... ....

    A very good song.💓

  13. d.... ....

    When did they get back!? Amazing

  14. A.... C....

    The only song on this album that was worth a damn

  15. B.... V....

    Shazamed this at BJ's haha

  20. A.... S....

    Someone needs to do a dubstep remix

  21. C.... 6....

    No. Fucking. Way.

    Im stoked!!!!!!!!!!!

  22. M.... T....

    Dude, that brings me great memories! It's like I've already heard this song, it's like this song was old .. #sqn This song is part of the new album of this wonderful band ACCEPTANCE, after 12 years standing: Colliding By Design (2017)... Buy the album, support these guys. I'm seeing 177 idiots who do not know what honest music is.

  23. M.... P....

    I didn't know they make a comeback... !!! I miss them so much!!!!

  24. C.... ....

    One of my all-time favorite bands since the days of "Permanent".

  25. R.... K....

    I read their interview. Definitely has the "Acceptance" feel and vocals and guitar riffs and sounds mature and amazing.

  26. d.... m....

    omg. my first check of my new job I will buy this album.

  27. M.... B....

    This song plays at my job lol

  28. R.... F....

    I listen to this album the whole month when i was in Mexico and I love it every time I hear it I remember the road trips passing the mountains

  29. B.... B....

    The solo is literally just Fireflies by Owl City. 2:24

  30. S.... I....

    New Album has grown on me thanks guys!

  31. A.... J....

    They reunited at the perfect moment

  32. B.... S....

    perfect...

  33. B.... S....

    I don't know if I'm the only one, but this reminded me of The Church - Under the Milky Way

  34. m.... ....

    Did anyone else come here cause they heard this at GoodLife fitness? Lol

  35. R.... w....

    It's about time you got back together

  36. J.... D....

    Still listening to this on the daily. I am so glad these guys are back. This song and the new album is amazing.

  37. T.... S....

    One of my most favorite bands growing up. I was so upset when they broke up. To hear them again feels like everything I've missed for the last 10 years is suddenly rushing back to me. Awesome band. Rock on, Acceptance.

  38. a.... g....

    a decade ago i listen this guys, so glad they make music again, back to teenage years :P

  39. g.... ....

    Way to rip off More Than Life

    g.... ....

    giorgospvl haven't heard that one, but this was more of a take on war on drugs/Fleetwood Mac for us. Thanks for listening!

  40. J.... C....

    welcome back. been waiting.

  41. T.... w....

    I think they accomplished "wanting to be...something that's different."

  42. W.... E....

    gracias x recomedar buenas bandas riserecords

  43. H.... ....

    Very disappointed they went away from the rock/pop punk stuff....this stuff in coffee house music...very boring

  44. a.... ....

    How can anyone dislike this? This is pure greatness

  45. A.... S....

    acceptance got new shit out. after all this time ...

  46. M.... ....

    ive missed these guys for too long!!! welcome them back with open arms!

  47. N.... S....

    Definitely is too much like ' the war on drugs-red eyes' need to sort out the similarities!

    N.... S....

    I can totally understand that line of thinking - though I can only speak for Acceptance, I think both guitar solos are nods to a Fleetwood Mac Buckingham solo- at least I'm assuming WOD is, too. Def. do like that band, though! Thanks for listening! :)

    N.... S....

    glunce oh trust me im not complaining due to the fact they're both amazing songs,its just literally so similar its unbelievable 😂

  48. D.... B....

    This band always bring it. Underrated but in a way I'm glad because they're music's best kept secret. By the way I'm straight but Jason is basically my husband.

  49. I.... ....

    I'm always a little skeptical when bands I found after they broke up reunite, this is great this is the sound I loved when I first heard Acceptance.

  50. B.... S....

    WHAAAAAT?! <333333

  51. V.... L....

    I flew out to Australia to see Acceptance specifically, twice over the past week. And I definitely appreciate & love this band so much more. This band is amazing live, not even joking

  52. B.... H....

    This band reminds me of early Nine Lashes. In love with this album ! Particularly this song and we can escape.

  53. T.... X....

    So refreshing to see Jason's face again!

  54. N.... ....

    Well Acceptance, you had my ear attention at good lyrics... I love your sound too.

  55. b.... w....

    I CAME HERE FOR THIS BAND, HAIL DREAMPOP

  56. B.... A....

    love it!!!

  57. D.... H....

    This is amazing, cant wait for the album

    D.... H....

    Dido Honor it's out!

  58. G.... A....

    The first 25 seconds sounds like they tried to transform Emotion Sickness from Silverchair into a anime intro.

    G.... A....

    Geovani Alves I'll take that. Fantastic reference. ❤️

  59. m.... u....

    yeah, we came for the fire, but we stayed for the rain.

  60. S.... C....

    Couldn't believe it when I stumbled on this video. When Phantoms came out back in the day, everyone was on it. So happy for these dudes. Great song!

  61. S.... R....

    Well, I think we are not going to get more distortion on guitars

  62. D.... s....

    sounds like the opening to a game show...

  63. R.... M....

    outstanding song

  64. C.... A....

    Very different from the Rise Records norm, but I love it!

  65. D.... ....

    I like this song, but I think Colliding By Design & We Can Escape are the best songs on this album.
    I'd love to see videos for either of those two tracks.
    On the technical side I really like the solid ghosting effect on the guitar player starting around 2:27. Can anyone tell me how that was achieved? Cheers.

  66. J.... B....

    This song has some awesome vibes!
    But the thumbnail looks like the singer is puking the fuck out – someone agrees? =D

  67. F.... F....

    This sounds like department store music. Not that anything is wrong with that.

  68. B.... ....

    This has been LONG overdue, Phantoms has gotten me through so many issues in my life, I'm so glad Acceptance is back and better than ever!

    B.... ....

    Truuuuue

  69. D.... G....

    This band deserve so much more exposure and success.

    If Paramore made this song their fans would be so happy.

  70. J.... R....

    Awesome.

  71. B.... !....

    I used to love there old album so much

  72. A.... C....

    Awesome music, thanks Riserecords for sharing this! <3

  73. F.... M....

    Have they been on the radio yet? It will happen, and they will be in movies. They have "the sound".

    F.... M....

    IB Fit They have been in movies. Well one that I know of.

    F.... M....

    Also in games.

  74. M.... M....

    One of my favorite songs off their album.

  75. t.... ....

    Just discovered this band so freaking good 👌🏼💯❤️

  76. B.... S....

    Amazeballs

  77. S.... Z....

    there isnt only jason vena's voice ?

  78. E.... P....

    I'm so happy they're making music again

  79. n.... y....

    SUCH BEAUTIFUL

  80. F.... ....

    A montage of #FazeClan on this would be a good idea I think

  81. L.... C....

    whaaaat! ugh i love it!

  82. C.... ....

    Just found this band, kinda like their music :)

  83. R.... G....

    this is good. I like good

  84. j.... ....

    The vocals kind of remind me of "Somebody I used to know" by Gotye

    j.... ....

    Scareslay ジ Totally agree

    j.... ....

    Yeah... Cept Jason's been doing it longer... Just sayin.

    j.... ....

    Thats exactly why this band was so amazing back then. This guys voice stood out so much amongst an "underground" scene.

  85. l.... ....

    i love this song

  86. d.... m....

    i can listen to this song on repeat all day long.

  87. M.... D....

    Let me down by the foolish flame
    And I'll take the blame
    I'll take the blame

    We came for the fire and drowned in the rain
    We went in alone and came out the same

    Will you cover your heart when you see what I've done?

  88. t.... ....

    Better than HWM.

    t.... ....

    Tian Ardiansyah BLASPHEMOUS. ha, they are one of our favorite bands. At a festival in like 2003, we ran into Chuck and brought him onto our RV. He 100% wiped snot on our couch, but we didn't even care. That couch became a relic.

    t.... ....

    Everyone has an opinion.

    t.... ....

    Who are HWM?

    t.... ....

    Hot Water Music.

  89. F.... Y....

    YES! I've always been a huge fan. Nice to see them resurface.

  90. A.... S....

    is back <3

  91. C.... N....

    dem autotune

    C.... N....

    dem english

    C.... N....

    @Lost Saga English*

    C.... N....

    people really still don't know the difference between harmonization and autotune?

    C.... N....

    It's actually pitch correction... Not harmonization.

    C.... N....

    Claus Nikolaus it’s a hard chorus and delay, everything is pitch corrected now days, the reason his sounds so crisp is because it’s deliberate. They’re going for an 80s feel but what you’re hearing is mostly a hard chorus and delay on the vocals

  92. M.... R....

    Awesome!!

  93. Z.... ....

    THIS MAKES ME HAPPY!!!!

  94. G.... P....

    omg i love it

  95. C.... C....

    I am here because of Anberlin!

  96. T.... S....

    Fire And Rain ;)
