Shattered Rhythm

[Verse 1] The clock spins dizzy, hands collide, A broken rhythm I can’t abide, Shadows stretch and bend, The night won’t let it end. Tick-tock, stop—no sense, no stride. [Chorus] Oh, shattered rhythm, where do you go? Your jagged beats, they steal the show. You twist, you turn, you break the flow— Oh, shattered rhythm, what do you know? [Verse 2] A heartbeat pulsing, faint and shy, It skips, it stumbles, it won’t comply. The moon’s a crooked grin, The stars, they laugh within, And time’s a trickster passing by. [Prechorus] Snap, crack, crash— It falls like glass. Hold it, catch it— But it won’t last. [Chorus] Oh, shattered rhythm, where do you go? Your jagged beats, they steal the show. You twist, you turn, you break the flow— Oh, shattered rhythm, what do you know? [Bridge] Jazz notes scatter, a chaotic dance, Broken bop, no second chance. The melody falters, it slips away, Yet somehow it finds a place to stay.
