Flawed (feat. Skrizzly Adams) - Chris Webby/Skrizzly Adams.mp3

[00:00.40]It's hard to be scared of a little thunder
[00:04.90]When you've spent your whole life waiting in the rain
[00:11.38]You reminisce, just grin, look back and wonder
[00:16.91]If you're ever gonna feel that way again
[00:21.29]Yeah, but you sit all at home, you're waiting
[00:27.54]But I've got a long way to go
[00:32.53]Just hold on 'til the stars start fading
[00:39.17]Just feel like I'm almost home
[00:44.04]Yeah, there's no tendency that I can see
[00:48.17]To get you off my mind
[00:50.74]I'm just flawed
[00:53.14]No, I'm just flawed
[00:55.96]Sirens went off in his head
[00:57.43]Still half-drunk in a foreign bed
[00:59.73]Said he'd be home after work, but he went to the bar instead
[01:02.38]And instead of with his wife, he woke up with this new acquaintance
[01:05.34]He met after seven shots and a couple of beers to chase it
[01:08.30]Basically he was wasted, but there's always a choice
[01:10.92]Reason chimed in, but he was ignoring the voice
[01:13.79]Now he's throwing on his wrinkled clothes
[01:15.83]And he knows when he goes home
[01:17.29]To that glass house with these old stones
[01:19.65]He gonna put on this mask, kiss her neck and then ask
[01:22.40]"How was your night?" before she even has a chance to react
[01:24.98]He'll be fine, it isn't like this is the first time
[01:28.12]Shit, everybody needs an occasion to unwind
[01:31.11]Ain't a crime to run away from things occasionally
[01:33.46]A way to release, that's just human nature and he
[01:36.46]Pulled down the driveway, saw his daughter playing on the lawn
[01:39.64]And all his rationalization was gone
[01:41.63]I've been trying, but can't deny
[01:47.77]That these things I do, I can't justify
[01:53.21]I feel it weighing while I'm by your side
[01:58.98]I'm just flawed
[02:01.81]Yeah, I'm just flawed
[02:04.73]He was greeted with a orange juice and something to eat
[02:08.19]And a kiss on the cheek, as if he didn't just cheat
[02:10.93]Felt that shiver down his neck
[02:12.55]That's the feeling of regret
[02:13.76]As she handed him his eggs, smelling whiskey on his breath
[02:16.67]Before she had the chance to even ask him about last night
[02:19.96]He said he had some drinks and crashed on the couch at the office
[02:23.19]All this was just an obvious lie
[02:25.02]And she could feel it in her gut, but said nothing as a reply
[02:28.16]She just stared at the man that she'd given everything to
[02:30.72]And the silence built into tension that enveloped the room
[02:33.68]'Til it was broken by the daughter saying
[02:35.39]"Daddy come see
[02:36.55]This picture that I drew of you and mommy back when you seemed
[02:39.40]So much happier
[02:40.54]Is anything wrong?
[02:41.43]Am I in trouble?"
[02:42.56]"No, everything is fine" they said
[02:44.36]"We both love you"
[02:45.53]And they both smiled as the moment occurred
[02:48.05]Like they forgot how ****ing broken they were
[02:50.35]I've been trying, but can't deny
[02:56.23]That these things I do, I can't justify
[03:01.77]I feel it weighing while I'm by your side
[03:07.55]I'm just flawed
[03:10.32]Yeah, I'm just flawed
[03:13.32]He stood there in the shower
[03:14.68]With the steam filling his lungs
[03:16.53]As if the water could wash away the shit that he'd done
[03:19.42]He let it run, deep it thought about when he was young
[03:22.18]Got out and looked in the mirror back at the man he'd become
[03:25.00]Then he opened the door to see his wife on the bed
[03:27.82]On the verge of tears, looked him in the eyes and instead
[03:30.88]Of saying anything, she threw him his phone with a text read
[03:33.86]But instead of more lies, he just looked at her and said
[03:36.99]I've been trying, but can't deny
[03:41.95]That these things I do, I can't justify
[03:47.52]I feel it weighing while I'm by your side
[03:53.32]I'm just flawed
[03:56.07]Yeah, I'm just flawed
[03:58.87]I've been trying, but can't deny
[04:04.82]That these things I do, I can't justify
[04:10.37]I feel it weighing while I'm by your side
[04:16.13]I'm just flawed
[04:18.96]Yeah, I'm just flawed
