EVENING HYMN

Maybe tomorrow I'll wake up early
and I'll fix it in one go
a few more hours of extra sunlight, maybe I'll get it right

Maybe tomorrow I'll wake up different
a little closer to my goals
but their arbitrary and I can't see the point

Oh how I pray, oh how I pray
in my evening hymn

Oh how I pray, oh how I pray,
so that I don't disappoint like I did today
Today

I've been living with this mindset,
of what constitutes success
Defining my value through my deeds

Should be growing exponential,
The panel to impress
A critic inside this struggle defines my youth

And I go one step forward,
two steps back, I've been chasing my tail
dreaming in circles now
three steps more and I'll be square

Switching up the paradigm,
reframe the narrative,
to live within my means and values

Parametres sustainable,
So I can keep defying,
a system designed to keep me in line all my life

And I go one step forward,
two steps back, I've been chasing my tail
dreaming in circles now three steps more and I'll be square

if I go one step more then I might fall
climbing up in increments
three steps more and I'll be there
