[Verse 1]

Just one more scroll, I swear

I know, near 1AM and I have lots of things on my to-do list

My eyes barely stay open, but I'm not pulling this act on purpose

In bed, feeling so comfortable

Can't move, I'll ignore all the calls

Maybe if I'm here long enough

Every task I have can just crumble

Still, it's hiding in plain sight

I can't deny it's my own fight

But I'll just do it tomorrow

I'm sure there's nothing that could go wrong


[Pre-Chorus]

Hey, it's me, R.I.P

It's written on my gravestone

Did my best, SOS

I'll do nothing and stay home

I can't control this reflex of mine

To stray off task


[Chorus]

Well, fuck, I've done it again

My problems overspilled

All the things that I need to do have

Been pushed back by my wants

Fuck, I've done it again

It sucks and even still

It's a downright bad habit that

Won't let me out of its grasp


[Post-Chorus]

Shit, (You screwed) oh shit (Up bad)

Oh shit (And now)

You're stuck within its wrath (Too bad)

Aw man (Too sad), why can't (Why can't)

I cram it tonight?

No, (No way!) I'll try (You'll try)

My best (Your best)

But now it's due today (But now it's due today)

And I know (You know)

I'll do it all again


[Verse 2]

Just one more show, I swear

My ending closing in but

It can wait until this season's finished

They say sloth is a sin, but I'd choose hell

Over that small assignment

Stop time, what if it's not done?

The fear is setting in, can't outrun

If life's really a race I'd come last place watching blood spill all over

Still, it's something I can't shake off

Sure go ahead and just smile, just scoff

All these hours I've spent wasting time

As if the world's gonna stop


[Pre-Chorus]

See that X 'round my neck?

It's tightening, you impressed?

Not a test, at my best

I still manage to mess up

So much would be done

If only I could stay on task


[Chorus]

Well, fuck, I've done it again

My motivation killed

Everything that I need to do has

Been shrugged off by my wants

Fuck, I've done it again

My dopamine's at nil

Do you think that this lack of effort's

All my fault? Well, that's right


[Post-Chorus]

Shit (You screwed), oh shit (Up bad)

Oh shit (And now)

You're stuck within its wrath (Too bad)

Aw man (Too sad), why can't (Why can't)

I cram it tonight?

No (No way!), I'll try (You'll try)

My best (Your best)

But still, it's due today! (But still, it's due today)

And I know (You know)

I'm a lazy piece of—


[Instrumental Break]


[Bridge]

Well, fuck, that's it for me

This plight isn't a skill

I can't stop, even though my mental health’s

Rolling down the hill

Fuck, my limit's near

I'm sure that I'll be grilled

With that said, is there room

For me to change?


[Pre-Chorus]

(Well, fuck, I've done it again)


[Chorus]

Well, fuck, I've done it again

Dethroned by my own will

Can't I try?

Try to be a better person once in my life?

Fuck, I've done it again!

My strength going downhill

Yes, I know, hurts my eyes

But I'm without an alibi


[Post-Chorus]

Oh shit, (You screwed) oh shit (Up bad)

Oh shit (And now)

You're stuck within its wrath (Too bad)

Aw man (Too sad), why can't (Why can't)

I cram it tonight?

No (No way!), I'll try (You'll try)

My best (Your best)

But now it's due today (But now it's due today)

And I know (You know)

I'll always be delayed


[Outro]

"Oh... I should have done it yesterday"
