Childhood often seemed a pain to me
So hard waiting to be grown
Childhood climbed up in a white oak tree
I blinked once and it was gone

Realize
You let go
Who you were
Not all at once
It happened over time
Day by day
Lie by little lie
Bit by bit you died inside
Then you blinked

I guess I blinked and woke up in this dream
Where you've become my everything
And try as I might to subdue
I find that I

And I just blinked again

So I was laying on the floor again
Getting lost inside my head
Thinking about all

You don't even know what I've done

Man I've done my dirt

The lock returned to normal 
And in his house he went 

He stepped into his bedroom 
And the sheets began to growl 
His

[Chorus:]
Flashes, I don't know what happened
Blinked couple times then I look around the room
That's when it happened
Flashes, I don't know what

Broke your heart in pieces
Time to take different directions
Wake up little girl
You want his heart
But he won't give it
Stop

"Hi"
An attempt at a wink
Looked more like you blinked
I blinked and now I'm here
So breathless when you're near

You never blinked an eye
You never told me twice
To wait for you my comeback girl

Funny how you miss me now I'm gone
Funny how you say I overthink
I just made a penny while you blinked
Funny how we

At least I think that he did
He came back, (right back)
And he ran and he

You said you'd wait forever
But I blinked
And the world was gone
You wade through the water
Slowly your hands grow numb
I wish you felt me

day I blinked and I was twenty-six
The milky lens, a veil between the worlds
Drains the colour, kills the hue
I steer my flesh suit from behind my face
