I'm overworked and over-tired,

Same motion daily on the grind,

Yeah, I'm a pressure cooker, and, I'm, on, fire,

Just ah, two hands, connected, to a, blank, state, mind,

Don't worry, I'll be home soon,

Well, at least my body will be,

I'll pass out on the bed from, my, mental, wound,

Then get back to work, despite, my, sleep, depravity,

click, click, staple, staple, click, click, stamp.

Drag the night across my face,

Burn out the stars behind my eyes, and

Shut it out and make it fade, and,

Maybe, then, I, won't, mind

(yeah, won't mind)

Gotta get up, stuck in traffic,

Crimson eyes, shouldn't panic,

People ask me, how do you keep yourself up,

I say, don't ask me, I've lost, my, mind,

Works, too, slow, get the caffeine, speed up,

Sorry to my heart, keep up, if you'd be so kind...

I don't have time to die, right, now,

(click, click, staple, staple, click, click, stamp)

I can't afford to cry, right, now,

(click, click, chatter, chatter, thump, thump, bam)

Drag the night across my face,

Burn out the stars behind my eyes, and

Shut it out and make it fade, and,

Maybe, then, I, won't, mind

(yeah, won't mind)

But hey don't be sad,

We get cake sometimes!

Hey don't be sad,

We get cake sometimes!

Take my mind through a tunnel,

Squeeze it out, through a funnel,

All the fun, running out, like the bullets,

in, a, gun

Drag the night across my face,

Burn out the stars behind my eyes, and

Shut it out and make it fade, and,

Maybe, then, I, won't, mind

(yeah, won't mind)

Bring your noise,

(i won't mind)

Bring your noise,

(I won't mind)

click, click, chatter, chatter, thump, thump, bam.

INFO BLURB

---------------------------------------------

My contribution to the Soundry Discord League competition, where we had to use a pre-determined chorus, and had the option to spin a randomized wheel to get completely random styles to use. I chose to do all that, and ended up being really lucky, honestly, this isn't too far off from my usual output anyway, haha.

The rest of the song I had to fill in myself, and the chorus read like someone burning out due to stress to me, so that became the central focus of the song, and I tried to make everything else as frantic as possible to reflect that, (even the visualizer). Hope y'all like it <3
