The Red Clay Strays - Drowning

Somebody help me I’m
Drowning
I can’t tread much longer I’m
Fighting
To keep my head above water
Throw me a line show me a sign
Everything’ll be alright

But it goes to show
There ain’t always a boat
To lend a helping hand
But if I can find just one way to stay afloat
I’ll find my way back to shore again

Of Monsters and Men - Empire

Feel the ocean as it breathes, shivering teeth
See the mountains where they meet smothering me
As the wind fends off the waves, I count down the days
Heavy stones fear no weather

And from the rain
Comes a river running wild that will create
An empire for you

I'll close with another Magazine song. They were a very weather-conscious band, possibly on account of their Manchester roots:

"Another time when we might be together!
You have a broken window, through which
The rain pours in my ear
This week's been all ears and edges
It's getting like a career"

Katie Melua - The Flood

What we own becomes our prison
My possessions will be gone
Back to where they came from

Blame, no one is to blame
As natural as the rain that falls
Here comes the Flood again

See the rock that you hold onto
Is it gonna save you
When the earth begins to crumble?
Why do you feel you have to hold on?
Imagine if you let go

"Humidity is rising
Barometer's getting low
According to all sources
The street's the place to go
'Cause tonight for the first time
Just about half-past ten
For the first time in history
It's gonna start raining men"
