[Intro - Soft guitar and pad swell] The coffee’s gone cold by the window Morning hums through the street [Verse 1] I woke up late, missed the bus again Same song on the radio Shoes by the door, notes on the fridge Nothing here I didn’t know Every plan feels penciled in Every answer sounds rehearsed I laugh it off, but underneath I’m counting what it’s worth [Pre-Chorus] I keep saying “I’m alright” Like it’s something I can choose But some weight won’t shake itself No matter how you move [Chorus] On days like these, I breathe in slow Let the noise pass me by I don’t need a reason, I don’t need to know Just a moment to get by On days like these, I stay right here Both feet on the ground beneath I don’t fix a thing, I just let it be Yeah, on days like these [Verse 2] Phone lights up, but I let it ring Some talks can wait their turn I’ve learned the hard way, silence too Has something left to learn There’s a crack in every schedule Room to bend, room to stall I’m not lost, I’m just not sure If I’m running at all [Pre-Chorus] Everyone’s in such a rush Like there’s something we might lose But I’m trying not to force a step When the road feels bruised [Chorus] On days like these, I breathe in slow Let the noise pass me by I don’t need a reason, I don’t need to know Just a moment to get by On days like these, I stay right here Both feet on the ground beneath I don’t fix a thing, I just let it be Yeah, on days like these [Bridge] Maybe calm is underrated Maybe stillness has a sound I’m not waiting for a sign I’m just sitting where I am [Breakdown - Instrumental, drums drop out briefly] [Chorus] On days like these, I breathe in slow Let the noise pass me by I don’t need a reason, I don’t need to know Just a moment to get by On days like these, I stay right here Both feet on the ground beneath I don’t fix a thing, I just let it be Yeah, on days like these [Outro - Gentle guitar, fading pads] If tomorrow asks too much of me I’ll come back to days like these
