[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] The coffee's cold, it's half past nine, I try to smile, pretend I'm fine. The chats pop up, the same old thread, I skim the words, then shake my head. [Verse 2] The screen glows blue, my shoulders stiff, Reports and calls, the usual shift. I had a thought — it's gone again, Replaced by meetings without end. [Chorus] I swore I'd write or walk tonight, But shorts kept stealing all my time. The podcast plays, I barely hear, Another day just disappears. [Verse 3] The weekend came, I slept past noon, The morning's gone, soon comes the moon. I pace the room then check my phone, Hoping to find no blame to own. [Verse 4] I bought a book I’ll never read, Then watered plants that didn’t need. I had the time, but didn’t try — To face the doubts I hide inside. [Chorus] I swore I'd write or walk tonight, But shorts kept stealing all my time. The podcast plays, I barely hear, Another day just disappears. [Bridge] Sometimes I dream I get to work, Then turn my back showing a smirk. No one's around to call my name, No eyes to judge, no fear nor shame. [Solo] [Chorus] I swore I'd write or walk tonight, But shorts kept stealing all my time. The podcast plays, I barely hear, Another day just disappears. [Outro] The lights go out, the ceiling stares, My lips repeat the same old prayers. Another night, no thoughts to keep, Just close my eyes, sink into sleep. [Instrumental Ending] [End]
