Atmosphere - Flicker Lyrics
[Hook]One little flicker of lightCan erase the darkOne little flicker of lightCan erase the dark[Verse 1]Yeah I been drinkin’, You already knowDo I smell like escape, Probably soI found your tape in my old collectionPut it in pushed play then I poured a fresh oneI look back with a hesitant laughBut in reality it’s dark down memory aveAll the trials and suffering we shared with each otherA lot of people thought that we were actually brothersYou know me, you know I’m a control freakWho told you, you could die before me?Gone, another dog lost to the wildI feel like a snot-nosed childAnd when I hear your SmileIts outlined in sadnessYou poked holes in the magicYou taught jokes to the clownsThat never learned howTo appreciate the lightsBefore the bulbs burned outFlicker[Hook]One little flicker of lightCan erase the darkOne little flicker of lightCan erase the dark[Verse 2]Yeah, I been thinking, You already knowDo I sound frustrated? Probably soSometimes I feel guilty, I was out on the roadIf I’da seen where it was going I’da stopped the whole showI realize it ain’t realisticI keep tryna make the pieces fit withThe info presentedI felt resentmentI held this against myselfI wanna help my friendIt stays in my headThat I was on a stage when you were laying in bedBody was discovered by your own motherIt penetrates my chest, I still taste the regretThat I slept through a late night call from your homieBut then I spoke with Siddiq the next morningAnd then I smoked one million cigarettesGo figure, maybe I was tryna catch up with yaFlicker[Hook]One little flicker of lightCan erase the darkOne little flicker of lightCan erase the dark[Verse 3]Yeah I been sinkin’ , you already knowDo I look exhausted? Probably soI don’t get much sleepI’m not sick, I’m fineI’m just tryna make the most of this limited timeAnd I’m missing you but I ain’t gonna lieThe distance grew between Eye and IAnd at the end, even though we didn’t speak enoughYou were easily one of the best people I’ve lovedNow I’m tryna write a song for a dead songwriterThat wrote they own songs about life and deathAnd every breath is full of self-awarenessDon’t ever be afraid to be embarrassedSo I wrote these words to describe what I cry aboutBut I’m starting to think if you were here right nowYou’d ridicule these lyrics, you’d hate this chorusYou’d probably tell me that the concept is too straight forwardFlicker[Hook]One little flicker of lightCan erase the darkOne little flicker of lightCan erase the dark
