Flash of Blue

Someone passed, he might have been you
He walked so fast, a flash of blue
I saw a car, and it might have been yours
I looked at the driver to be sure
It feels like I see you everywhere
In my bedsheets, I find your hair
Every time it breaks my heart
I never thought it'd be so hard
I shouldn't worry because I have a plan
I'd run away, bury my head in the sand
I try to remember and try to forget
Everything that we ever said
It feels like I see you everywhere
In my bedsheets, I find your hair
Every time it breaks my heart
I should have known it'd be this hard
I should have known it'd be this hard

[Verse 1]
G Bm7 Em C Bm7 G
I walked to the well that was never wet
B7 Em C
A familiar trail to thoughts derailed
G D G
Lined with old pain and regret
G Bm7 Em C Bm7 G
I stare down the well that was never wet
B7 Em C
I pull the bucket up, I chance my luck
G D G
It's a habit that has stuck
[Chorus 1]
C D G
I know my time's gone to waste
Bm7 Em C D G
Hope for change is a cycle I can't seem to break
D G
Cannot break
[Repeat Verse 1]
[Repeat Chorus 1]
C D G
I can say I don't feel so insane
Bm7 C D G
This hope for change burdens me every single every day

Everyday

Two Lives

You and I met as children by the oceanside
Making bets meant to impress
We raced on little legs
'Til days came to their ends
We weren't much older, but I'd say some years had passed
I swam too far to the third sandbar
When I came back so confused
You cried, so I held you
At some point, we went through some kind of change
A great growth, an opening of eyes
I can't say what day
Because I loved you always
Hearts can't help but connect
I'll love you until the end
I know that
Your smile to me is like the moon at night
Sometimes it's out, sometimes it hides
Either way, it illuminates
Leaving me in a brighter place
When I'm with you, the water is clearer
It's like that I'd like to go without you by my side
I could try
But you seem to pull the tides
Two lives chose to connect
I'm so lucky you chose me back
I know that I loved you always

Galveston

I sat on a cliff
Thinking of a dream that I miss
I was somewhere near Galveston
That's a place I've never been
Thinking back to a life never lived
It's quiet, peaceful, the problem is
I'm at home and I'd like to go
Anywhere but here
There's nowhere that could feel alright
Like the place I dreamt of that night
I let my mind race to find
Somewhere that I could get by
I know it won't quiet my heart
But I'm desperate for a place to start
I'm missing a life never lived, and it's anywhere but here
Anywhere but here
