Out of Work Blues

[Verse] Woke up late with the sun in my face Another day lost in this endless chase Dust on my dreams They're shelved and gray Job boards laughing as they look my way [Verse 2] The bills pile high like a mountain's peak The mirror whispers "You’re looking weak" Friends tell me “It’s okay You’ll find your way” But the cracks in my heart have too much to say [Chorus] I feel like shit Broken and bare Drowning in a world that's so unfair No paycheck coming No ladder to climb Just a ghost in the mirror past her prime [Verse 3] Scrolling feeds where success shines bright Everyone winning I'm losing the fight The fridge hums louder than my own voice Feels like failure was my only choice [Bridge] But deep inside there’s a spark There's a flame Tired of hiding under guilt and shame I’ll stand I’ll shout I’ll rewrite my part Even from nothing I’ll restart [Chorus] I feel like shit Broken and bare But I’ll rise from this dark despair No paycheck coming No ladder to climb Still a fighter searching for her time
