Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Alarm clock venom Dripping in my veins Scroll through emails Like they’re ball and chains Coffee like a bath I’m drowning in the cup Smile for the scanner Just to watch my soul clock in again [Chorus] Cut my day in half I’ll still suffer Every paycheck tastes like rubber Pop my heart like a bubble in the gutter (pop, pop, pop) Pop punk dreams on a break room table Stapled to a name tag “barely stable” I’m too loud for these beige-ass fables (pop, pop, pop) [Verse 2] Fluorescent ceiling Buzzing in my skull Boss says “we’re a family” Guess I’m the bull they pull Dead plant on the desk Wilting like my gut Every “quick sync” feels Like another paper cut [Chorus] Cut my day in half I’ll still suffer Every paycheck tastes like rubber Pop my heart like a bubble in the gutter (pop, pop, pop) Pop punk dreams on a break room table Stapled to a name tag “barely stable” I’m too loud for these beige-ass fables (pop, pop, pop) [Bridge] I’m not your soldier Not your savior I’m not a line On your behavior chart Clock out the venom Wash it off in the bath Circle a date When I don’t come back [Chorus] Cut my day in half I won’t suffer Spit that fear out Feel it stutter Pop my badge Let it fall in the gutter (pop, pop, pop) Pop punk heart on a kitchen table Writing my escape in broken cable I’m too real for these beige-ass fables (pop, pop, pop)

rock, Fast, snappy pop-punk sprint at 180 BPM; crunchy guitars palm-muting on verses then exploding into big open chords on the hook. Tight bass locked to a punchy kick, splashy high hats and crash cymbals driving the choruses. Male vocals with a snotty edge, gang shouts on key words in the chorus. Brief halftime breakdown before the last hook with tom-heavy drums, then a final shout-along outro., pop, pop punk
