Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 Morning comes but I can’t feel the light Curtains closed against the fight Every clock just mocks my name Every day feels just the same Ashtray full of yesterday Another promise thrown away The mirror shows a hollow stare Like nobody is living there ⸻ Pre-Chorus Time keeps moving on But I’m barely hanging on ⸻ Chorus Blackout days and empty nights Can’t remember where I lost the fight Every dream fades into gray Lost somewhere in blackout days Blackout days and shattered sleep Falling in a hole too deep Every hope just slips away Buried in these blackout days ⸻ Verse 2 Coffee cold beside the sink Too exhausted just to think Every thought becomes a storm Every quiet feels like war Bills piled high upon the floor I don’t open doors anymore The world outside keeps moving on But inside me something’s gone ⸻ Pre-Chorus Every step feels slow But I don’t know where to go ⸻ Chorus Blackout days and empty nights Every shadow starts a fight Every memory turns to haze Drowning in these blackout days Blackout days and broken sleep Secrets that I try to keep Every prayer begins to fade Lost inside these blackout days ⸻ Verse 3 Streetlights bleeding through the blinds Like a searchlight in my mind Looking for the man I was Before the silence swallowed love Every photograph I see Feels like someone else was me Every smile from long ago Feels like something I don’t know ⸻ Bridge (heavy emotional breakdown) Maybe someday I’ll escape This prison that my mind creates Maybe somewhere down the line I’ll finally recognize my mind But tonight the darkness stays Living through these blackout days ⸻ Breakdown (quiet grunge moment) No sound but the ticking clock No light behind the locked up thoughts No sleep behind these tired eyes Just endless nights and endless lies ⸻ Final Chorus (big ending) Blackout days and endless rain Every heartbeat echoes pain But somewhere past this endless haze There’s life beyond these blackout days Blackout days but I still stand Barely holding to the plan Maybe hope will find its way Through the dark of blackout days ⸻ Outro Morning waits beyond the gray Past the wreckage of today Maybe someday I’ll escape The shadow of these blackout days.
