Water Damage

[Intro]
[Verse]
3 AM and the kitchen fog
Sits heavy like a tired dog
Flipping through the damaged stack
There is no way to go back
Your eyes are blurred by blue
I’m losing sight of you
[Pre-Chorus]
The edges start to fray
In a soft and hazy way
Like a secret kept too long
In a half-remembered song
[Chorus]
You’re a ghost in the grain
Washing out inside the rain
Melted cherry on the stone
Now I’m sitting here alone
Memory warps like old tape
There is no easy escape
[Verse]
Chalk drawings on the cracked street
Washed away by summer heat
Popsicles dripping on your shoes
Nothing left for us to lose
You left without a single word
The quietest thing I ever heard
[Pre-Chorus]
The colors bleed and run
Underneath a ghost of sun
Like a secret kept too long
In a half-remembered song
[Chorus]
You’re a ghost in the grain
Washing out inside the rain
Melted cherry on the stone
Now I’m sitting here alone
Memory warps like old tape
There is no easy escape
[Bridge]
Reverse the reverb in my head
Repeat the things we never said
The Juno hums a steady low
Watching all the shadows grow
It’s a tender kind of ache
For a bond I couldn't break
[Chorus]
You’re a ghost in the grain
Washing out inside the rain
Melted cherry on the stone
Now I’m sitting here alone
Memory warps like old tape
There is no easy escape
[Post-Chorus]
Just a flicker in the dark
In the center of the spark
Softly spinning out of view
Always searching for the true
[Outro]
