Wither Away

I wake up with an ache to be creative But my time's spent sitting, waiting As I watch another day go to waste I can't just shrivel at this desk job Restless til I get off As I wish my effort wasn't lost As I click click click my clock is ticking Sick sick sick of overthinking And I can't let a life's regret start to settle in So til I rip rip rip right through my throat I'll never quit quit quit, this shit ain't over Now's the time to try it right and finally begin Cause I'm growing old tryna fit the fucking mold Watching my youth get tangled in a noose It's getting old tryna follow what I'm told When I'm afraid (I'm afraid) I'll see my time slip and wither away Wither away Oh tell me did you stifle all your promise? Is your life all that you wanted? Do you go through every day as who you're not? Cause I've known who I wanna be Since I was fucking seventeen What happened? What happened to me? As I click click click my clock is ticking Sick sick sick of overthinking And I can't let a life's regret start to settle in So til I rip rip rip right through my throat I'll never quit quit quit, this shit ain't over Now's the time to try it right and finally begin Cause I'm growing old tryna fit the fucking mold Watching my youth get tangled in a noose It's getting old tryna follow what I'm told When I'm afraid (I'm afraid) I'll see my time slip and wither away Wither away
