Bad Weather in My Head

[Verse 1]
Woke up heavy
Like someone stole the air
Phone keeps buzzing
I just stare
Got plans on the table
Clothes on the floor
All that “you got this”
Falls through the door
[Chorus]
It’s like bad weather in my head
Turning blue skies into dread
Every little thing feels ten times higher
Tiny spark becomes a fire
Yeah
It can ruin my day
Turn my whole life sideways
When the storm won’t let me rest
It’s bad weather in my head
[Verse 2]
Friends say “come out”
I type “I’m fine”
Backspace
Rewrite
Leave it on “seen” this time
Smile in the mirror
Looks paper-thin
Who is that stranger
In my own skin?
[Chorus]
It’s like bad weather in my head
Turning blue skies into dread
Every little thing feels ten times higher
Tiny spark becomes a fire
Yeah
It can ruin my day
Turn my whole life sideways
When the storm won’t let me rest
It’s bad weather in my head
[Bridge]
Some days I’m sinking
Same four walls
Same ceiling
But I’m still breathing (still here)
Slow step
Small hope
Learning how to hold the rope
When I feel it slipping near
[Chorus]
It’s just bad weather in my head
Doesn’t have to be my end
Every little step can pull me higher
Pouring rain then quiet after
Yeah
It can wreck my day
But it won’t steal all my days
When the storm says “this is it”
I’ll wait it out
Till the clouds all split

pop, Shiny modern pop, midtempo groove with crisp drums, muted palm-muted guitar in the verses and bright synths in the chorus; male vocals, intimate on the verses, opening into wide stacked harmonies on the hook, bass warm and steady, subtle piano and airy pads lifting the bridge before a final, hooky chorus
