[Verse]
We used to laugh, now it’s silent like a deadbeat dad,
Convos short, a text thread gone bad.
Fights flare daily, words cut, broken glass,
Jobless dreams, girl, you stuck in the past.
[Chorus]
Love on layaway, payments overdue,
Pennies for a promise, but I’m tired of the view.
Broken clock in the crib, we losing time too,
Every tick-tock remind me of the old you.
[Verse 2]
Dishes in the sink, plans down the drain,
I’m digging for patience, only finding pain.
Empty wallet matchin’ hearts runnin' low,
Ain’t no sunshine, just a dim, hollow glow.
[Bridge]
I’d carry your weight, but my back's giving out,
Dreams in a shoebox, filled with doubt.
Rent late, joy feels repossessed,
Love lost in the clutter, life’s a mess.
[Chorus]
Love on layaway, payments overdue,
Pennies for a promise, but I’m tired of the view.
Broken clock in the crib, we losing time too,
Every tick-tock remind me of the old you.
[Verse 3]
This ain’t a script, we improv-ing pain,
Arguments flood, we dancing in the rain.
Unemployment, both love and cash thin,
You outta job, but a job of stress on my skin.
