Avalanche

It all fell down like an avalanche
Can’t hold it back, though I tried
Dust will settle on pain we resist
Didn’t know it all could ache like this

There are a hundred broken pieces inside my ribs
Losing you was like caving when
It all fell down

Still having dreams, back in time
Sitting in your old house late at night
Know I’ll see you in better places
Learn to trust, lean in the waiting

Cause I’ve been patient, healing slow
But keep on waking up so low and feeling down
And now

I’m in a black hole on rewind but
Maybe I’m not lost
There’s no map through my mind but
Maybe I’m not lost

When headlights on the road don’t shine far enough ahead
I still love to drive alone at night
Holding on to what you said
Know I’m gonna be alright

Cause I’ve been changing, healing slow
I’ve been changing, healing slow
