Tired of Time

[Intro]  
Every tick, every tock, I feel the weight,  
Shadows creep in as I contemplate.  
Time's a thief, it steals the light,  
In the folds of the fabric, we lose the fight.  
[Verse 1]  
Eyes wide open, but I'm drifting away,  
Caught in a cycle, it’s a weary ballet.  
Days blur together, like a fading tone,  
Wishing for moments I can call my own.  
[Pre-Chorus]  
A clock on the wall, it mocks my despair,  
Running in circles, it's so unfair.  
Every breath a reminder, every sigh a plea,  
Tired of the echo that’s haunting me.  
[Chorus]  
Time, oh time, why you take so long?  
Worn out heart, I’m just trying to be strong.  
Whisper me secrets in the dark of night,  
Tired of waiting, I need to feel the light.  
[Verse 2]  
Dreams in the shadows, they flicker and fade,  
Life’s a masquerade, a relentless charade.  
Footprints in the sand washed away by the tide,  
Chasing the moments where hope can confide.  
[Pre-Chorus]  
But in the depths of chaos, I still find a spark,  
A flicker of laughter in the cold, dark arc.  
With every tick I battle the fear,  
Tired, yet the dawn always draws near.  
[Chorus]  
Time, oh time, why you take so long?  
Worn out heart, I’m just trying to be strong.  
Whisper me secrets in the dark of night,  
Tired of waiting, I need to feel the light.  
[Bridge]  
Let the hours run wild, let the minutes disperse,  
I’ll rise from the ashes of this heavy curse.  
With every beat, I’ll reclaim what’s mine,  
Stitching together my struggles in rhyme.  
[Chorus]  
Time, oh time, why you take so long?  
Worn out heart, I’m just trying to be strong.  
Whisper me secrets in the dark of night,  
Tired of waiting, I need to feel the light.  
[Outro]  
So here I stand, weariness and grace,  
In the dance of the hours, I’ll find my place.  
Wild and free, with the stars overhead,  
In the arms of tomorrow, I’ll leave this thread.
