[Intro]
Yeah…
It’s like everything’s fast-forward,
and I’m stuck in slow motion.
Trying to keep up, but I’m breaking just trying.
⸻
[Verse 1]
Woke up late again, missed another call,
Bills on the table, clothes on the wall.
Coffee gone cold, mind filled with static,
I laugh it off, but inside—it’s panic.
My friends all talk about plans next year,
I nod along, but I’m barely here.
They’re chasing dreams, I’m chasing sleep,
Trying to sew up the wounds I keep.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
Every mirror just shows the decline,
A stranger’s face, but it looks like mine.
And life don’t stop—it just moves ahead,
While I’m still fighting the noise in my head.
⸻
[Chorus]
’Cause I’m watching my mind fade,
While the world keeps moving like nothing changed.
Everyone’s laughing, making plans,
And I’m just trying to hold what I can.
Falling behind but I fake that smile,
Telling myself it’s just for a while.
But deep inside I’m losing my faith,
As life runs past and I stay in place.
⸻
[Verse 2]
Scrolling through photos I don’t relate,
Smiles that feel like a different state.
Used to be loud, now I barely speak,
Even my highs don’t last a week.
Mom says, “Call me, you’ve been gone too long,”
I say, “I’m fine,” but she knows I’m wrong.
It’s hard explaining a storm in my chest,
When every word feels like a test.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
Every heartbeat feels like strain,
Another day trying to hide my pain.
And the clock don’t wait for the ones who stall,
I’m just here watching it all fall.
⸻
[Chorus]
I’m watching my mind fade,
While the world keeps moving like nothing changed.
Everyone’s laughing, making plans,
And I’m just trying to hold what I can.
Falling behind but I fake that smile,
Telling myself it’s just for a while.
But deep inside I’m losing my faith,
As life runs past and I stay in place.
⸻
[Bridge]
Maybe one day I’ll find my pace,
Stop feeling trapped in this endless race.
Maybe I’ll heal, or maybe I’ll break,
Either way—I’m wide awake.
The lights keep flashing, the cars still go,
Time don’t care who’s moving slow.
And I’m still here, picking up the parts,
Trying to rebuild a worn-out heart.
⸻
[Outro]
Yeah…
If I fade while the world keeps moving,
Tell them I tried, I kept improving.
Even if my mind came undone,
I still fought hard beneath the sun.
