Blink
Frankie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We're just a blink
A little bit of history
But the gods are left to notice
Such a perfect moment
Don't you think
Life is worth the mystery?
And even though we come and go
There's so much we could see in just a blink

Ain't it kinda funny how
We can think we got it figured out?
But the universe is all about
Up and down and back around again
I was standing on the concrete
In the middle of our old street
Being where we used to be
I couldn't really help but think

Listen
I've been low, I've been high
I've been wrong, I've been right
I hit the ground so hard, it hurts so bad
I've seen dark, I've seen light
I've seen death, I've seen life
I'm just the stories I hold

'Cause we're just a blink
A little bit of history
But the gods are left to notice
Such a perfect moment
Don't you think
Life's worth the mystery?
And even though we come and go
There's so much we could see in just a blink
So much we could see in just a blink

Do ya ever wonder how
We forget about the here and now?
All the people who come in and out
Might never come back around again
Wasn't even on my mind then
Should've grabbed you in a moment
As I stood there in the street
I couldn't really help but think
Listen

I've been low, I've been high
I've been wrong, I've been right
I hit the ground so hard, it hurts so bad
I've seen dark, I've seen light
I've seen death, I've seen life
I'm just the stories I hold

'Cause we're just a blink
A little bit of history
But the gods are left to notice
Such a perfect moment
Don't you think
Life's worth the mystery?
And even though we come and go
There's so much we could see in just a blink
So much we could see in just a blink

We're just a blink
A little bit of history
But the gods are left to notice
Such a perfect moment
Don't you think
Life's worth the mystery?
And even though we come and go
There's so much we could see in just a blink




There's so much we could see in just a blink
There's so much we could see in just a blink
