Sick of It All

Eyes heavy, mascara smudged, warpaint faded

Mirror don’t lie, her patience traded

Streetlights flicker, her heart’s on E

Soul stuck in the traffic, can’t break free

Clock ticks, but time don’t heal no scars

Every step forward feels ten back, Mars

Text unread, her phone on silent

World’s too loud, but her thoughts stay violent

She’s sick of it all, yeah, she’s done with the game

Burning bridges just to light her own flame

No calls, no ties, no reason to fall

Sick of it all, yeah, sick of it all

Tired of the wolves dressed up in sheep

Promises cheap, words cut too deep

She’s a lion in a jungle full of fakes

Teeth sharp, breaking through life’s earthquakes

Fingers snap, but the rhythm won’t change

Chasing her peace in a world deranged

Staring at the moon, it don’t stare back

Dreams in her pocket, but her sky stays black

Dishes in the sink, rent past due

But she’s a queen, rocking hand-me-down shoes

The grind don’t stop, but her spirit won’t bend

Every end’s just a chance to begin again
