Postcard Rebellion

[Intro]
[Verse]
Sneaking out the back gate
Leaving dinner on my plate
Mom thinks I’m running late
But I’ve got a secret date
With the dust and sea air
Salty wind in my hair
[Pre-Chorus]
Their schedule is too tight
I’m chasing the fading light
Escaping the curated view
Finding something old and new
[Chorus]
Sun-bleached and gold (giggle)
Stories left untold
Handwritten tags on the shelf
I’m finding a piece of myself
In the thrift store by the bay
Where the colors never stay
[Post-Chorus]
Dusk is falling down
Far from the busy town
Dusk is falling down
Far from the busy town
[Verse]
Tracing ink on the price
Everything feels so nice
I didn't think twice
Rolling the velvet dice
For a jacket with a history
Wrapped in a soft mystery
[Pre-Chorus]
The calendar is full of lies
Underneath these orange skies
I don’t want a perfect life
I just want to feel alive
[Chorus]
Sun-bleached and gold (giggle)
Stories left untold
Handwritten tags on the shelf
I’m finding a piece of myself
In the thrift store by the bay
Where the colors never stay
[Hook]
Postcard in my pocket
Lock it like a locket
Postcard in my pocket
Lock it like a locket
[Bridge]
Tuck the postcard deep inside
Nowhere left for me to hide
It’s a tiny, quiet win
Let the magic begin
No more plans for the day
Just drifting away
[Solo]
[Chorus]
Sun-bleached and gold (giggle)
Stories left untold
Handwritten tags on the shelf
I’m finding a piece of myself
In the thrift store by the bay
Where the colors never stay
[Post-Chorus]
Dusk is falling down
Far from the busy town
Dusk is falling down
Far from the busy town
[Breakdown]
No filters on the glass
Watching the minutes pass
Handwritten dreams for sale
A slow and salty trail
(soft giggle)
[Outro]
