I got up this morning, last night running through my head
Popped a couple of aspirin, without a sound we got dressed
I can't believe how we hurt the ones we love
Before you know it push comes to shove
I know we don't mean it but words are hard to stop
The strain we've been under takes all the love we got
We all get angry, sometimes that's what we need
But that alone ain't gonna set us free
Don't look at me to ease your demons
Don't wanna fight with you no more
Hurts too bad for no good reason
I want to be the shelter and not The Storm
I'll make us some coffee; don't have to say a word
Just know that I'm sorry baby I've got a lot to learn
I pray to God to help me hold my tongue
Cause it's good for nothing if it ain't love
I won't look at you to ease my demons
I don't want to fight with you no more
It hurts too bad for no good reason
I want to be the shelter and not the storm
I want to be the shelter and not the storm
Come in from the rain
That's what love is for
I want to be the shelter
Shelter, not the storm
Don't look at me to ease your demons
Don't want to fight with you no more
Hurts too bad for no good reason
I want to be the shelter and not the storm
Hurts too bad for no good reason
I want to be the shelter and not the storm
