[Verse 1]
Raised on fog and the old boardwalk,
Where the houses lean and the locals talk.
Cracked sidewalks with wildflowers grown,
Salt in the paint and the wood sun-blown.
Everyone said, “It don’t change here,”
Same tide, same bar, same overpriced beer.
But I found rhythm in the rust and room,
A quiet kind of concrete bloom.
[Chorus]
On the endless boardwalk, time moves slow,
Waves say more than the people I know.
Familiar skies, unfamiliar me,
Driftin’ through who I’m meant to be.
These planks remember all my doubt —
Still I walk, still I’m finding out.
[Verse 2]
Came back home with my hair grown long,
New lines in my face, but I still belong.
Saw my name scratched in the corner rail,
From a year when I swore I’d never fail.
The surf still rolls like it always did,
But I see it now like I never did.
Not stuck, not lost, just passing through,
With a little more weight and a clearer view.
[Chorus]
On the endless boardwalk, time moves slow,
Waves say more than the people I know.
Familiar skies, unfamiliar me,
Driftin’ through who I’m meant to be.
These planks remember all my doubt —
Still I walk, still I’m finding out.
[Bridge]
Every step is a breath I’ve known,
Every breeze is a seed I’ve sown.
You don’t outgrow where your roots first ran —
You just learn to move like the ocean can.
[verse 3]
Now I carry this place in the lines I write,
In the way I pause when the coast feels right.
In the songs I sing when I lose my way,
I hear the gulls, and I taste the spray.
It’s not my cage, it’s not my chain —
Just the root that steadies the weight I’ve gained.
Wherever I go, there’s a rhythm beneath —
Of waves, and wood, and the air I breathe.
[Chorus]
On the endless boardwalk, time moves slow,
Waves say more than the people I know.
Familiar skies, unfamiliar me,
Driftin’ through who I’m meant to be.
These planks remember all my doubt —
Still I walk, still I’m finding out.
[Outro]
So I walk where I walked before,
Same wood, same wind, but I feel it more.
If I leave again, I’ll leave no trace —
Just a calm in my chest and a sunlit face.
