about

'Washed Ashore' describes the complex emotions that come with big life changes. It’s a self aware journey of finding one’s feet and working through life altering events.

lyrics

Standing at the edge of town
Reaching out your arm
Invisible barrier stays your hand
It's funny how something small as this can feel like so much more
I can tell that you're afraid of what's to come your way
But it will be okay, I promise

What's in store for tomorrow

An apparition of a door appears in front of you
Now's the time to decide, the handle's fading
In the blink of an eye, the chance will be gone

Without hesitation
Hold your breath and step on through
Your vision is gone, why can't you see
I made you a promise I couldn't keep

Will there be a tomorrow
I know things are pretty hard right now
And they're getting harder still

A flash of light, you shield your eyes
The ground's vanished, now you're falling
The open waters rush to meet you
Knocked unconscious without warning

You awaken washed ashore
Saltwater eyes adjusting
Who can say how long it's been
Since you left so eagerly

I don't blame you
I would've done the same
No, I don't blame you
You're stronger than you think

You'll get through this
We'll get through this
I'll get through this

I'm stronger than I think
