Lyrics:
Intro:
A clock ticks softly, counting down the day,
A hum in my chest I can’t push away.
Verse 1:
Side hustles stack like bricks in a wall,
I chase the future, but it’s never small.
The safety net’s worn thin at the seams,
Patch it up with hours and faded dreams.
Pre-Chorus:
Every corner hides another fall,
I brace for impact, I feel it all.
Chorus:
I can’t outrun the blindside,
The weight pulls me in, it won’t subside.
Always preparing, always on edge,
A house on a cliff, I’m stuck on the ledge.
Verse 2:
I hold my pride like armor too tight,
A shield in the day, a burden at night.
They see the surface, calm and composed,
But don’t ask what it costs to keep it closed.
Pre-Chorus:
Every plan feels like a house of cards,
I build it high, but it falls too hard.
Chorus:
I can’t outrun the blindside,
The weight pulls me in, it won’t subside.
Always preparing, always on edge,
A house on a cliff, I’m stuck on the ledge.
Bridge:
What’s the use in fighting shadows I can’t see?
The storms will come, no matter how I plead.
Do I spend my life bracing for the fall,
Or let the pieces scatter, let them call?
Final Chorus:
I can’t outrun the blindside,
The weight pulls me in, it won’t subside.
I fight for a calm that never arrives,
An endless pit of borrowed time.
Outro:
So I survive, one day at a time,
Let the storms roll through, I’ll toe the line.
A hollow kind of peace, a heavy kind of pride,
Living with the blindside, always the blindside.
