Triggers

V1:

Driving in the car yesterday when I heard that song on the radio

And I was right back there, the sea breeze in the air

So vivid I swear, could hear the laughs over the fire we had blazing 

Took a walk the other day, ended up at the park where we used to play

The smell of the grass, sends me right to the past

All the kids running around, used to be us that ruled these grounds

Got an invitation to that party up the street, from our old house

Fifteen years of memories come flooding back

Chorus:

Everywhere I go, my memories start to flow

Each one of my senses, puts me back in those places

The sights and the sounds, and the smells that surround 

All these triggers send me back in time

The good and the bad, all the times that I've had

Ain't no escaping the triggers

V2:

In the store the other day, someone said her name

Even a thousand miles away, cant escape that pain

Sitting in the doctor's office, smell hits me like a ton of lead

Reminds me of the three weeks spent in that hospital bed

Turn the tv on and the race is playing 

That was grandma's thing, sundays past start replaying 

Chorus:

Everywhere I go, my memories start to flow

Each one of my senses, puts me back in those places

The sights and the sounds, and the smells that surround 

All these triggers send me back in time

The good and the bad, all the times that I've had

Ain't no escaping the triggers

Bridge:

Everywhere I look, every cranny, every nook

There's always something there to bring me back 

Flashes from the past, all the memories I've amassed 

From little things like tiny plastic rings

To the bigger ones like children dancing in the sun

No matter where I go, no matter what I do 

The triggers always find a way to push through  

Chorus:

Everywhere I go, my memories start to flow

Each one of my senses, puts me back in those places

The sights and the sounds, and the smells that surround 

All these triggers send me back in time

The good and the bad, all the times that I've had

Ain't no escaping the triggers
