When the storms came in off the coast it felt like they broke everything on us at once It's easy enough to talk about "Blyth spirit" When you're not holding the walls up and knee deep in it The pictures and the postcards got soaked by the rain And we wondered if they'd ever get dry again
But I'm not gonna spend the whole of my life indoors Layin low, and waiting on the next storm I'm not gonna spend the whole of my life inside I wanna step out and face the sunshine
We lost faith in the poems; we lost faith in the gods We just ended up clutching a the empty ritual Like gamblers clutching long odds And I don't care what the weatherman's saying Because the last time that I saw him he was on his knees and praying The preachers and the scientists got soaked just the same And we wondered if we'd ever get dry again
But I'm not gonna spend the whole of my life indoors Layin low, and waiting on the next storm I'm not gonna spend the whole of my life inside I wanna step out and face the sunshine
She opened the shutters Raised up the mast Rejoice Rebuild The storm has passed
Cast off the crutches Carve off the cast Rejoice Rebuild The storm has passed
But I'm not gonna spend the whole of my life indoors Layin low, and waiting on the next storm I'm not gonna spend the whole of my life inside I wanna step out and face the sunshine I'm not gonna live the whole of my life indoors I'm gonna step out, and face the next storm
