Verse 1
Couldn’t sleep, the night drags on,
Eyes are heavy, but I stay strong.
Uniform scratches, seams don’t fit,
Step inside — the noise won’t quit.
(so loud… can’t breathe…)
Pre-Chorus
Laughter echoes, but I can’t smile,
Every sound cuts in for miles.
I try to fade, I try to hide,
But the world won’t let me stay inside.
Chorus
It’s a heavy day, too much to bear,
Every heartbeat drowns in the air.
What feels so small can break me apart,
The world is screaming inside my heart.
It’s a heavy day… don’t make me stay.
Verse 2
Teacher’s eyes, I turn away,
Buzzing lights won’t fade today.
Paper blurs, my hand’s in pain,
I fall behind again, again.
(keep going… I can’t…)
Pre-Chorus
Lunch is waiting, I can’t eat,
The smell alone knocks out my beat.
Even the games, I’m left behind,
Their laughter cuts me every time.
Chorus
It’s a heavy day, too much to bear,
Every heartbeat drowns in the air.
What feels so small can break me apart,
The world is screaming inside my heart.
It’s a heavy day… don’t make me stay.
Bridge
One sore throat — the final straw,
I can’t go back, I’ve given all.
Don’t call me weak, don’t call it fake,
You don’t know how much it takes.
(yeah… fighting all day… just to stay…)
Final Chorus
It’s a heavy day, too much to bear,
Every heartbeat drowns in the air.
What feels like nothing is cutting me deep,
I’m drowning in battles no one can see.
It’s a heavy day… please hear me say.
Outro
I’m not lazy… I’m not wrong…
I’ve been fighting… all day long.
It’s a heavy day…
And I need to stay.
