Lightning
Kelsey Wild Lyrics

I still remember every word you said
I can recollect all the words that you said to me and they are still fresh in my memory.

I've got a catacomb of words up in my head
There's a labyrinth of words in my head that I can't seem to get rid of.

Now all our dreams are thrift-store ready
Our once precious dreams have become meaningless and are now worth second hand prices.

Like they used to be that way
Our dreams were once very important to us, but not anymore.

When we're looking at a one-track get-away
We're constantly thinking of running away and starting a new life somewhere else.

And a moment's all it takes to find
All it takes is just a moment to realize something important.

The grey matter is suddenly defined
The ambiguity is finally cleared and everything becomes clear in your mind.

And if I stare too long at another face
When I stare at someone's face for too long, I can sometimes see your face in theirs.

Sometimes I see your own
I see your face in their face.

Outrun the realization that I'm alone
I try to avoid the fact that I'm alone and think of other things instead.

When the lightning strikes you can try to run
When disaster hits, you might try to escape it.

But it never fails to strike at home
But somehow the calamity finds you no matter where you go.

Now you're all shook up
Now you're frightened and nervous.

And you can feel the burning deep inside your bones
You can sense the fear deep in your heart and soul.

And if you try hard enough
If you make an effort.

You might make it back in time
You might succeed and overcome the obstacles in time.

It's been greyer for this time of year
The weather has been gloomier than it should be for this time of year.

I've been sitting around waiting for a sign to appear
I've been lounging, hoping that something will inspire me or tell me what to do next.

Something in me says stick it out, wait another day
Part of me believes that I should stay patient and not give up hope just yet.

But what I wait for, want I wanted
What I've been waiting for and hoping for hasn't come to fruition.

It always stays the same
Everything remains as they were and nothing changes.

And the maker of this puzzle
To whoever created this complex picture,

I wanted to commend
I wish to congratulate you for doing such a great job.

I can't see the whole picture
Unfortunately I can't understand the entirety of the situation.

Guess I haven't figured it out yet
I still haven't found the answer.

And even though these times are trying
Although these times are difficult and challenging.

And it's hard to keep your head above
It's challenging to stay positive and optimistic.

Oh the water rolling over
Despite all the challenges and struggles.

You just gotta hold on
You must remain strong, hold on and not give up.
