[Verse 1]

Stuck in a dream with no means and no ends

Wastin' my time, I don’t see the progress

Waitin' in line, I won’t eat, I’m so stressed

Pacin' my mind till I OD with no meds

Had everything on track, what happened?

I got sick, got mad, got scattered

I lost it, that pizazz, that action

Down the drain with the rest of that passion

Days in, days out, heads in the same cloud

Same gig, same town, everything the same now

Everything is played out, over my head (Nah)

I’m loathin' the path that I’ve chosen to tread

I’m over the trend, not close with my friends

'Cause I know that my motions are cloaked in regret

Don’t know how close, but I know it’s the edge

If I don’t get some hope, I’m approachin' the end like, yo

I try to show some respect

But I hate what I see, and I’m over the net

Just a hoax, or a pest, or a clone of the rest

But I know that I’m vexed, so, to cope, I repress

Stuck in a mind, but I can’t unwind

Run from the life, but it’s faster than I

So I duck, and I hide while I’m passin' the time

And erupt on a mic with the bars that I write


[Chorus]

Days in, days out

Everything the same now

Fade in, fade out

Head up in that same cloud

Everything has weight now

It’s heavy, heavy

Everything has changed now

It’s heavy, heavy

Days in, days out

Everything the same now

Fade in, fade out

Head up in that same cloud

Everything has weight now

It’s heavy, heavy

Everything has changed now

It’s heavy, heavy


[Verse 2]

Everything has weight now—heavy, heavy

Everything I say now—petty, petty

Don’t wanna change, I’ll change when I’m ready

They say celebrate, I ain’t see no confetti (Nah)

Every day, wake up in a mist

I told you to go, but I love you to bits

Now I roll with the flow, like I’m stuck in a rip

When I’m older I’ll know, but I’m young, just a kid

Or I’m dumb and a dick, or a dunce or a prick

Now I’m done with my shit, so no wonder you skipped

So you run to the sticks with your mum and your sis'

And I’m stuck in a bits with my drums and a kick

Back of the bus, earbuds to the head

Run from my thoughts till I busted my leg

Now I’m stuck on a fence with a bunch of regret

And it’s tough, but I guess that is something you get (Yeah)

So I keep my head down in the dirt

Scroungin' around with the nouns and the verbs

I know I’m soundin' absurd

But when I’m out of words, I found that it works

So why's everything that I feel so heavy?

Why's it all just so heavy?

Maybe I just ain’t ready

Maybe I just ain’t ready


[Chorus]

Days in, days out

Everything the same now

Fade in, fade out

Head up in that same cloud

Everything has weight now

It’s heavy, heavy

Everything has changed now

It’s heavy, heavy

Days in, days out

Everything the same now

Fade in, fade out

Head up in that same cloud

Everything has weight now

It’s heavy, heavy

Everything has changed now

It’s heavy, heavy
