Nightingale

(album: SWIRL - 2021)

I know you're always stuck in the middle
And life just seems like a riddle
But I thought I could save you
(I thought I could save you)
Sticks and stones may hurt you a little
But your feelings are even more brittle
When the world tries to break you
Maybe I could come save you?

Peace of mind, I've been chasing
But time just keeps fading
I'm praying
But it's just hell I'm raising
And the more that I change
The more I stay the same
Yeah, I'm praying
That you'll come and save me

When you feel like you're in the backseat
Watching flowers grow through the concrete
Through the cracks in the pavement
I thought I could come save you
Yeah, life's just a series of the in-betweens
Sometimes we get stuck on the little things
But love is adjacent
And I thought I could save you

Peace of mind, I've been chasing
But time just keeps fading
I'm praying
But it's just hell I'm raising
And the more that I change
The more I stay the same
Yeah, I'm praying
That you'll come and save me

(Can you save me, save me, save me now?)

Peace of mind, I've been chasing
But time just keeps fading
I'm praying
But it's just hell I'm raising
And the more that I change
The more I stay the same
Yeah, I'm praying
That you'll come and save me
