Working life away

**Title: "Chasing the Clock"**

**Verse 1:**

Woke up with the sun, another day to grind,

Coffee in my cup, but it’s heavy on my mind.

Got a list of tasks, they’re piling up high,

Dreams of freedom fade, as the hours pass by.

**Chorus:**

I’m chasing the clock, running on empty,

Bills keep stacking, they don’t let me be.

Every penny counts, but the joy’s hard to find,

Just a moment to breathe, is all I ask for this time.

**Verse 2:**

Traffic on the road, feels like a never-ending race,

Counting down the minutes, in this crowded space.

Lunch breaks are a whisper, just a moment to eat,

With my mind on the grind, can’t escape this beat.

**Chorus:**

I’m chasing the clock, running on empty,

Bills keep stacking, they don’t let me be.

Every penny counts, but the joy’s hard to find,

Just a moment to breathe, is all I ask for this time.

**Bridge:**

Oh, the weekend’s a dream that slips through my hands,

I’m lost in the hustle, but I have my plans.

One day I’ll break free, let the worries all go,

Find a piece of the sky, let my spirit flow.

**Chorus:**

I’m chasing the clock, running on empty,

Bills keep stacking, they don’t let me be.

Every penny counts, but the joy’s hard to find,

Just a moment to breathe, is all I ask for this time.

**Outro:**

So here’s to the dreamers, who long for the light,

We’ll keep pushing forward, through the endless night.

One day we’ll find balance, and let our hearts sing,

Until then, I’ll keep working, waiting for that spring.
