Flickers
Wrabel Lyrics

I draw a line 'til the line starts going off course
I make a plan for my life, but sometimes things do not go as expected.

In black and white, I can't see the color
In a straightforward way of thinking, I cannot see the complexities and nuances of life.

I don't know what it's moving towards
I do not know what my life is leading me towards.

But I try to believe it's true
Despite the uncertainties, I still try to hold onto faith that things will work out.

Is it better to have loved and lost?
Is it worth the emotional pain that comes with heartbreak?

You grow up, paint a picture of your life
As we mature, we create idealized visions of our future.

Like a fixture in your mind
These visions become a constant thought in our minds.

And it tricks you once or twice
However, reality may deviate from these dreams and can lead to disappointment and heartache.

Or three times
The pain can be experienced multiple times.

And I know it's not right, and I know it's not fair
Although I understand this is a natural occurrence, it still feels unjust.

Sometimes you fall in love, sometimes it's not there
Sometimes love is reciprocated, and others, it is not.

It flickers
Love is not always consistent or stable.

I follow light 'til my eyes can't see it no more
I pursue my ambitions until I lose sight of my goals.

And in the dark, I tape stars to my ceiling
During the hard times, I will look for hope and inspiration wherever I can find it.

Just waiting for something to spark
I am looking for any source of motivation to propel me forward and reignite my passions.

But I can't confidently say
I am unsure if this journey will result in the happiness I am looking for.

Magic gets lost in the mundane
In our ordinary daily lives, we often forget the extraordinary and magical moments.

Magic gets lost on Sunday, magic gets lost in the
Even on days of rest or celebration, magic can still be elusive.

Magic gets lost in the world we live in
The chaos of the world can overshadow beauty and wonder.
