[Verse 1] We’re racing red lights, chasing deadlines Faces glowing in the blue-white shine Eyes down, scrolling through a borrowed life Too busy breathing to feel alive Conversations lost in “I’m alright” No one’s listening, we just reply Everyone’s loud but nobody hears We’re counting minutes, not counting years [Pre-Chorus] And the clock don’t pause for the tears we hide It don’t care who’s wrong or right We say “someday” like it’s guaranteed But someday’s just a silent thief [Chorus] It’s gone in a blink, gone in a breath One little second closer to death We’re fighting over things that don’t matter at all While time’s slipping through the cracks in the wall We run, we rush, we’re always late Chasing a life we don’t appreciate If this is all we ever get Why do we live with so much regret?.... [Verse 2] Missed call sitting on your screen “I’ll ring tomorrow”....... what does that mean? Empty chair at Sunday tea You thought there’d always be time for “we” Grey hairs hiding in plain sight Years don’t knock, they pass at night We measure wealth in things we own But can’t buy back one second gone ... [Pre-Chorus] And the clock don’t pause for the tears we hide It don’t care who’s wrong or right We say “someday” like it’s guaranteed But someday’s just a silent thief ... [Chorus] It’s gone in a blink, gone in a breath One little second closer to death We’re fighting over things that don’t matter at all While time’s slipping through the cracks in the wall We run, we rush, we’re always late Chasing a life we don’t appreciate If this is all we ever get Why do we live with so much regret?... [Bridge] If time’s a gift, why treat it cheap? Why plant no roots but expect to reap? We’re scared of silence, scared to feel But numb is never how you heal Look up. Look round. This moment won’t come back again. [Pre-Chorus] And the clock don’t pause for the tears we hide It don’t care who’s wrong or right We say “someday” like it’s guaranteed But someday’s just a silent thief [Chorus/Outro] It’s gone in a blink, gone in a breath One little second closer to death We’re fighting over things that don’t matter at all While time’s slipping through the cracks in the wall We run, we rush, we’re always late Chasing a life we don’t appreciate If this is all we ever get Why do we live with so much regret? Look up. Look round. This moment won’t come back again.
