Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1) Alarm clock ringing but I’m already awake Didn’t really sleep, just drifted in the ache Coffee going cold on the counter again Another long day I don’t wanna begin Mirror on the wall got nothing to say Just a tired face trying to look okay Smile for the world like I’m good and fine Then shut down slow when I’m left with mine Messages read but I don’t reply Hard to explain what I can’t define It’s like I’m here but I’m somewhere else Living in my head, stuck with myself People say, “You just need time” Like time rewinds what’s lost in your mind But time just stretches out the pain Makes the quiet feel insane (Pre-Chorus) Every day feels the same Different sky, same rain Try to run from the weight But it follows my name (Hook) Daylight slips through my blinds, I feel hollow Empty room, quiet walls, hard to swallow Every breath feel borrowed Like I’m here but I’m not though Moonlight paints the skyline, I feel sorrow City shining bright but my heart don’t follow Wide awake with the throttle Of a mind I can’t bottle (Verse 2) Late night scrolling through old memories Wondering who I was meant to be Every dream feels far from reach Like hope speaks but I can’t hear speech I got friends, yeah, I got support But there’s battles you fight you can’t report Some wounds don’t bleed, they sit inside And smile while they slowly divide I used to laugh without thinking twice Now everything’s weighed with a price Even good days feel fragile Like happiness comes with survival I don’t want pity, don’t want applause Just want peace without the pause Just want one night of quiet air Where my chest don’t feel so bare (Bridge – stripped down) If I disappeared for a while Would the world move on? Would the sun still rise Like nothing’s wrong? I’m not asking for saving Just something steady and true A reason to wake up And feel something new (Final Hook – bigger, more emotional) Daylight slips through my blinds, I feel hollow Empty room, quiet walls, hard to swallow Every breath feel borrowed Like I’m here but I’m not though Moonlight paints the skyline, I feel sorrow City shining bright but my heart don’t follow Wide awake with the throttle Of a mind I can’t bottle
