[Intro] [Female] Emergency alert again. [Male] You leaving? [Female] Would you? [Male] No. [Female] Then why are you asking? [Verse 1] [Male] Pressure fell the second you came through Red glass sweating, whole city turning blue Bartender said the storm was moving inland You traced the rim like you had different plans Shutters shaking somewhere down the avenue I watched the weather, you watched me watching you No confession, no dramatic scene Just that look that makes a warning feel clean [Female] Your clothes still dry, your pulse says otherwise You love disaster when it wears a good disguise I don’t need thunder telling me you’re close Air changes first, then everybody knows We left the balcony door unlocked on purpose Let the curtains tell us when the wind got nervous Everybody downstairs trying to get away We came upstairs because we wanted it to stay [Pre-Chorus] [Male] Barometer low [Female] Temper worse [Both] Whole city bracing While we do the reverse [Chorus] [Both] Hurricane Pressure on the glass, red light in the rain We don’t run when the warning sirens change We go quiet in the eye Then start again Hurricane No shelter in the way this room moves One calm second, then the ceiling comes loose By morning they can blame the wind For everything we do But the storm had nothing On me and you (Hurricane) [Verse 2] [Female] Power cut out at two thirteen Whole skyline vanished but the exit sign stayed green You looked different underneath emergency light Less careful More honest I liked you like that Phone signal gone Elevators dead Rain writing crooked little lines across the glass You asked if I was nervous I said, “About which part?” [Male] Thunder hit close enough to shake the frame You barely moved That told me everything Dark rum low Generator humming Hotel hallway full of strangers running Meanwhile you’re standing barefoot by the window Watching palm trees bow like they already know There are easier people we could’ve been tonight [Female] Easier never looked right [Pre-Chorus] [Female] Wind at the door [Male] Lights flicker twice [Both] Everybody wants safety We keep choosing the night [Chorus] [Both] Hurricane Pressure on the glass, red light in the rain We don’t run when the warning sirens change We go quiet in the eye Then start again Hurricane No shelter in the way this room moves One calm second, then the ceiling comes loose By morning they can blame the wind For everything we do But the storm had nothing On me and you [Bridge] [Male] There’s a quiet in the center of it [Female] I hate that part [Male] Why? [Female] Because I can hear myself think [Male] And? [Female] And I know exactly what I’m doing [Male] Good [Female] Don’t sound so pleased with yourself [Male] Too late [Both] Then the pressure drops again [Final Chorus] [Both] Hurricane Dawn coming gray through the edge of the rain Broken branches underneath the hotel sign Whole world counting what survived Hurricane We walked straight through the worst of the night No heroic ending No clean alibi Just two people standing When the sky finally clears [Female] Still here [Male] Yeah [Both] Hurricane [Outro] [Female] Weather says it’s moving north. [Male] Good. [Female] Why good? [Male] I’m tired of sharing the blame. [Female] ...That was almost clever. (Hurricane)
