Lyrics
Verse 1
I thought I was doing alright
Everything looked fine from the outside
Had a smile, had a plan
I thought I was doing alright
Everything looked fine from the outside
Had a smile, had a plan
Built it all with my own hands
I thought it would last forever
I thought I’d hold it all together
But I never looked beneath
What was holding up my feet
Chorus
The storm tells the truth
The storm tells the truth
Everybody looks strong
When the sky is blue
The storm tells the truth
The storm tells the truth
It shows what you’re standing on
It shows what you’re standing on
Verse 2
Some build on money
Some build on fame
Some build on whatever
Makes the pain go away
I built on things
That couldn’t stay
Then the rain came down
And washed it all away
Chorus
The storm tells the truth
The storm tells the truth
Everybody looks strong
When the sky is blue
The storm tells the truth
The storm tells the truth
It shows what you’re standing on
It shows what you’re standing on
Bridge
Rain came down
Rain came down
Wind blew hard
Wind blew hard
Rain came down
Wind blew hard
What was left?
What was left?
Final Chorus
The storm tells the truth
The storm tells the truth
Everybody looks strong
When the sky is blue
The storm tells the truth
The storm tells the truth
The storm tells the truth
The storm tells the truth
It shows what you’re standing on
It shows what you’re standing on
The Rock held on
The Rock held on
The storm tells the truth
The storm tells the truth
Outro
The storm tells the truth
The storm tells the truth
The storm tells the truth
