Flicker

(It came and went in a flicker)

Don't turn away
From flickering days
And games that we play
We'll turn out okay

Can't do as we're told
What glitters is gold
If we stay this bold
We'll never feel too old

Chasing blue nights under the yellow lights
Through parks and bends
Going home felt like a new fight
A divorce from play pretend

The war with bedtime turned into early nights
Shared skin with my bed
These days gone by, thought I had endless supply
Some things do dare to end

Like time travel
One year turned to ten
Looking back now, it came and went in a flicker

Keep going through
Things that I knew

I could hold tighter
The world keeps getting wider
Letting go, I just
I feel, I feel lighter

Keep going through
Things that I knew

I could hold tighter
But the world keeps getting wider
Letting go, I just
I feel I feel lighter

Don't turn away
From flickering days
And games that we play
We'll turn out okay

Can't do as we're told
What glitters is gold
If we stay this bold
We'll never feel too old

Spent so long waiting for the next or thinking on the last
Every day felt like a year, but the night changes so fast

Can't lean on days wasted for a taste of it or fear losing track
Of everything I could grasp with my two hands before falling back

Still don't know how
How I got this far
Looking back now, it came and went in a flicker

Keep going through
Things that I knew

I could hold tighter
The world keeps getting wider
Letting go, I just
I feel, I feel lighter

Keep going through
Things that I knew

I could hold tighter
But the world keeps getting wider
Letting go, I just
I feel, I feel lighter

(Keep going through)

Take in all the yellow light
Watch the sunset and moon rise
Don't blink cause the time flies
Keep this moment in view

I don't want to miss this
Take your indigo fist
And hold with a tight wrist
The moments in bloom

Don't turn away
From flickering days
And games that we play
We'll turn out okay

Can't do as we're told (Don't turn away)
What glitters is gold (Don't turn away)
If we stay this bold (We'll be okay)
We'll never feel too old (We'll be okay)

(It came and went in a flicker)
