There's a very interesting story behind this one. Ask me about it. No wait, don't. Nevermind.

We are both weary
from the raging storm outside
so much anger, so much pain.
We need a place to hide.

So we look 
   to each other...
All that we can find,
I will care about
   only you...
that is if you don't mind.  

So tonight, bruised and battered
we lay quietly down.
Eyes are wide, up to the ceiling
and we try not to frown.

I hear your tears,
   they're flowing gently.
I wish that it wasn't so.
But just for tonight
 we will not fight     them
   we will just let them go.

In our little darkness
   the darkness of those around this place,
we cannot forget it but
it does not belong on your face.

	I try to be different,	
	       I try to be strong,
   I always end up defeated and wrong.
	You try to be social,
	       try to be real,
   But you and I are the only ones
                                              who feel.

To not be broken...
For once to just be well...
To leave this place... with you, with me
but I could never tell... 
  So in each others arms we
     wash the pain away.
   We hold on as long as we can
     and will not face tomorrows day.
I try to be honest, try to be true,
I try to be me and you try to be you.
But it's not enough in this stormy weather
so we cry, but we do it together.

I try to be free, try to be proud.
I try to be good, but it's just not allowed.
   You are beautiful and you are so right...
       all I ask...      is you stay here tonight.

Huh. Oh well.
Can't you just hear Jewel singing something like this?
