[Verse 1] Clock out, then I flinch Like I missed my chance One deep breath on the couch And I ruin the plan My inbox keeps its stare My hands start to shake If I sit still too long I feel myself break [Pre-Chorus] But the room still holds me Even when I freeze I am not a machine I am not just needs [Chorus] Rest does not erase me Rest does not erase me I’m still here, I’m still worth it Even when I lay low Rest does not erase me Rest does not erase me I can be unfinished And still be whole [Verse 2] I read the same line twice Then I lose the thread Three tabs, half a thought And a buzzing head I start five things at once Then I drop the last Chasing perfect focus Like a train I can’t catch [Pre-Chorus] But the sun doesn’t panic When the clouds move slow My mind can wander And still come home [Chorus] Rest does not erase me Rest does not erase me I’m still here, I’m still worth it Even when I lay low Rest does not erase me Rest does not erase me I can be unfinished And still be whole [Bridge] Maybe worth is not a race Maybe breathing counts Maybe a quiet hour Can be sacred now So I set the load down Let my shoulders fall I don’t have to earn sleep I don’t have to earn it all [Final Chorus] Rest does not erase me Rest does not erase me I’m still here, I’m still worth it Even when I lay low Rest does not erase me Rest does not erase me I can be unfinished And still be whole
