Burnout

I'm happy in here, dark circles wait in my stare ID on my neck, my soul's nowhere Monday morning, the world swallows me whole Excel sheets, my future takes its toll The past gives me a look, it smells so cold I'm half a kid, I could be out in the cold Hold on a kid, or you'll be out in the cold Friday night, the cage opens wide The beast is loose, the beetle screams, can't hide Eat, drink, sweat, play, parties, awkward dance Mind switched off, lost in a trance Forget the bills, rent, the stress Pretend that life's not just a mess Friday morning, and the world work hits Reality grabs me, no more tricks Sunday afternoon, the anxiety creeps Monday's close, the cycle repeats Oh no, oh no, Instagram perfect Filters hide the pain The inner ache, it drives me insane Click, click, click, fake smiles Captions to please, half-blinds don't pretend to be at ease Robot voice, but it's real Looking for meaning, some gold, some wealth Help Friday night, the cage opens wide The beast is loose, libido screams, can't hide She drinks, sweats, ready bodies, awkward dance Mind switched off, lost in a trance Forget the bills, the rent, the stress Pretend that life's not just a mess Sunday morning, and the world work hits Reality grabs me, no more tricks Forget the bills, the rent, the stress Pretend that life's not just a mess Is this it? We're bruising sex A vicious cycle, a complex hex You've heard enough, the future slips away In a city of boredom, where hope decays Friday night, the cage opens wide
