[Chorus: Skrizzly Adams]
It's hard to be scared of a little thunder
When you've spent your whole life waiting in the rain
You reminisce, just grin, look back and wonder
If you're ever gonna feel that way again
Yeah, but you sit all at home, you're waiting
But I've got a long way to go
Just hold on 'til the stars start fading
Just feel like I'm almost home
Yeah, there's no tendency that I can see
To get you off my mind
I'm just flawed
No, I'm just flawed
[Verse 1: Chris Webby]
Sirens went off in his head
Still half-drunk in a foreign bed
Said he'd be home after work, but he went to the bar instead
And instead of with his wife, he woke up with this new acquaintance
He met after seven shots and a couple of beers to chase it
Basically he was wasted, but there's always a choice
Reason chimed in, but he was ignoring the voice
Now he's throwing on his wrinkled clothes
And he knows when he goes home
To that glass house with these old stones
He gonna put on this mask, kiss her neck and then ask
"How was your night?" before she even has a chance to react
He'll be fine, it isn't like this is the first time
Shit, everybody needs an occasion to unwind
Ain't a crime to run away from things occasionally
A way to release, that's just human nature and he
Pulled down the driveway, saw his daughter playing on the lawn
And all his rationalization was gone
It's hard to be scared of a little thunder
When you've spent your whole life waiting in the rain
You reminisce, just grin, look back and wonder
If you're ever gonna feel that way again
Yeah, but you sit all at home, you're waiting
But I've got a long way to go
Just hold on 'til the stars start fading
Just feel like I'm almost home
Yeah, there's no tendency that I can see
To get you off my mind
I'm just flawed
No, I'm just flawed
