Good Terms - Wither Away

To Rate
Verse 1
I wake up with an ache to be creative
But my time’s spent sittin’, waitin’
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

Pre-Chorus
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

Chorus
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

Verse 2
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 fuckin’ seventeen
What happened? What happened to me?

Pre-Chorus
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

Chorus
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

Instrumental Bridge

Outro Chorus
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 (Wither away)

Heavy eyes and blistered feet Sweat is dripping from my cheek {?} But you're a thousand miles away {?} But it doesn't end today

I let my thoughts all get too hot You know that’s way we are But I don’t think that’s what I did To make you cut me off so hard Can’t believe you didn’t call me To talk when

Good Terms - Wither Away
{Verse 1} I wake up with an ache to be creative But my time’s spent sittin’, waitin’ As I watch another day go to waste I can’t just shrivel at this desk job
