Wild Swell

Verse 1

Found a photo

Of a shoreline where I stood

When I was seven

I remember thinking that the salt could make me good

Now I'm older

Running through the parking lot

Looking for an exit

Everything I wanted then is not the thing I got

Pre-Chorus

But then the tide rolls in

It washes out the day

My mood is shifting again

Watching it fade away

Chorus

Cause I'm a wild swell breaking on the sand

Breaking on the sand

Too loud for this small town to understand

How to hold me in their hand

It pulls me under

It pulls me back out

Always living with a little bit of doubt

Yeah I'm a wild swell

Wild swell

Verse 2

Watch the water

Cold and dark and mean

Changing all its colors

Like the phases that I had when I was seventeen

My dad told me

Try to keep a level head

But I'm built like current

Tearing through the words that everyone has ever said

Pre-Chorus

But then the tide rolls in

It washes out the day

My mood is shifting again

Watching it fade away

Chorus

Cause I'm a wild swell breaking on the sand

Breaking on the sand

Too loud for this small town to understand

How to hold me in their hand

It pulls me under

It pulls me back out

Always living with a little bit of doubt

Yeah I'm a wild swell

Wild swell

Bridge

Maybe I'm just foaming

Maybe I'm just crashing

Maybe I'm just growing

Too fast for the lashing rain

Chorus

Cause I'm a wild swell breaking on the sand

Breaking on the sand

Too loud for this small town to understand

How to hold me in their hand

It pulls me under

It pulls me back out

Always living with a little bit of doubt

Yeah I'm a wild swell

Wild swell
