One More Day (Again)

(Breath in)

(Breath out)

Another sunrise through the blinds I never close

Another coffee just to feel my blood flow

Put on my face, play pretend I’m okay

But the mirror’s seen me break every day

Step outside with the weight on my chest

Smile at strangers while hiding the rest

It’s one more day… again

Dragging my shadow through the cold pretend

I don’t know when this loop began

But here I am

One more day… again

(Again... again...)

The silence screams like an old best friend

I count the tiles on the ceiling at night

Each one a thought I’ve been losing the fight

Routine’s a cage I decorate in style

Nobody notices I’ve been gone a while

Laugh in place, then I scroll away

Another reel, another mask display

It’s one more day… again

Dragging my shadow through the cold pretend

I don’t know when this loop began

But here I am

One more day… again

(Again... again...)

Like breathing’s something I have to defend

Don’t say hope, I’ve heard it too much

Don’t say “strong,” I’m tired of the crutch

If you see me, don’t ask why—

Just sit with me 'til the numb goes by

I don’t cry, not ‘cause I’m brave

But ‘cause the tears dried up and forgot how to behave

I hum a song I don’t know the name

But the melody knows I’m not okay

I fake the lines, I hit repeat

Even lies sound tired on this beat

It’s one more day… again

Dragging my shadow through the cold pretend

I don’t know when this loop began

But here I am

One more day… again

(Again... again...)

A quiet scream under porcelain skin

Again, again, again, again

Will this ever end, ever end?

(Again, again…)

It’s one more day… again

Still breathing in a world that won’t bend

I don’t know why, I just remain

But I’m still here

One more day… again

(Again... again...)

Again… again…
