Edwin Watson - Flickering Light Lyrics

Flickering screens in dive bars, smoke stained fingertips held tight
Tangled headphones, stolen glances, under neon, Friday night
We were young, hearts on fire, chasing dreams in faded ink
Didn't know this flame would flicker out, another love on the brink
Maybe growing pains disguised as ripped converse and cheap cologne
The fairytale we scribbled on a napkin, faded, ripped and all alone
But even now, the memory stings, a bittersweet melody
Hope you're chasing all your demons down, with fire in your soul, wild and free
Maybe we were just constellations, passing in the cosmic night
But the way you held my hand, under flickering light, feels like a truth, feels like light
Your beat-up bomber jacket, hanging lonely in my closet space
The scent of leather, a faded dream, a bittersweet embrace
I learned to love the silence now, the space where your laughter used to ring
But sometimes the echoes whisper low, a melody the past still sings
Maybe growing pains disguised as ripped converse and cheap cologne
The fairytale we scribbled on a napkin, faded, ripped and all alone
But even now, the memory stings, a bittersweet melody
Hope you're chasing all your demons down, with fire in your soul, wild and free
Maybe we were just constellations, passing in the cosmic night
But the way you held my hand, under flickering light, feels like a truth, feels like light
Maybe growing pains disguised as constellations, passing in the cosmic night,
But the way you held my hand under flickering light feels like the truth feels like light
Your beat-up bomber jacket, hanging lonely in my closet space
The scent of leather, a faded dream, a bittersweet embrace
I learned to love the silence now, the space where your laughter used to ring
But sometimes the echoes whisper low, a melody the past still sings
