I turned it into a song about my current state of mind, feeling the weight of the world as it is now, finding it hard to move forward in the day-to-day.

SONG LYRICS
[Intro (instrumental: fingerpicked acoustic guitar)]

[Verse]
Soft lights, quiet nights,
Feeling so...mellow.
Nostalgia fills the air.
I just wanna go...nowhere.

Sitting here, being there,
Feeling so...shallow.
Knowing there's much to do,
I just can't move...feeling blue.

[Pre-Chorus]
The world feels heavy on my back,
Every little step breaks a crack.
I’m staring down the start again,
But even breathing feels like work to begin.

[Chorus]
It’s too much, too wide, too high,
I can’t even lift my eyes.
The weight of everything I see
Keeps pulling me down before I can breathe.
I want to move, I want to try,
But getting started feels like saying goodbye.
The world feels heavy, what can I do?
I’m stuck at the edge…I just fell through.

[instrumental segue]

[Verse 2]
So long, drifting on,
Feeling so…fickle.
Making all kinds of plans,
Start and stop…I am a sham.

Playing games, feeling shame.
Feeling so…brittle.
Searching for an easy way
Settle for…just okay.

[Pre-Chorus]
The world feels heavy on my back,
Every little step breaks a crack.
I’m staring down the start again,
But even breathing feels like work to begin.

[Bridge]
Maybe someday the weight will fade,
And in the morning I won’t feel afraid.
When it doesn’t feel so hard to be,
I’ll step into the light and finally breathe.

[instrumental (soft fingerpicked acoustic guitar)]

[Outro]
I just fell through.

[instrumental (fade out)]
