Thunder Lyrics
My heart's like a fireplace in summer:
It's useless and only here for show.
I don't know what it is I'm after;
I just hope I find it when I go.
If I'm honest, I say, "I love the distance,"
So daily, I pack a bag and leave.
I think, "This must be it; you must be tired of my shit,"
But then you're in the driveway holding me!
'Cause all I've got is thunder,
Noise inside my holster.
If I can't have you, then I'm probably through,
Because all I've got is thunder.
I can't help it; I'm crying through my party.
I'm useless unless I'm holding you.
The outside is telling me it wants me;
I wanna stay at home and be with you.
'Cause all I've got is thunder,
Noise inside my holster.
If I can't have you, then I'm probably through,
Because all I've got is thunder.
I'm talking with no teeth, yeah, I'm prone to be.
And all I've got is thunder,
Noise with nothing after.
If I can't have you, then I'm probably through,
Because all I've got, all I've got, all I've got is thunder.
It's useless and only here for show.
I don't know what it is I'm after;
I just hope I find it when I go.
So daily, I pack a bag and leave.
I think, "This must be it; you must be tired of my shit,"
But then you're in the driveway holding me!
Noise inside my holster.
If I can't have you, then I'm probably through,
Because all I've got is thunder.
I'm useless unless I'm holding you.
The outside is telling me it wants me;
I wanna stay at home and be with you.
Noise inside my holster.
If I can't have you, then I'm probably through,
Because all I've got is thunder.
Noise with nothing after.
If I can't have you, then I'm probably through,
Because all I've got, all I've got, all I've got is thunder.

This song seems to be talking about the struggles of being separated from someone that you're in a deep relationship with. The writer compares them self to thunder, action less without it's partner (lightning). "I'm talking with no teeth" also plays into this idea that the writer is weaker when by them self.
Overall this songs is a nice testament to the strength of deep relationships.
