Synth Solo - Upbeat and melodic)
One of these Days
ELECTRIC MISSY
(Verse 1)
One of these days, the fog is gonna lift
And I’ll see the truth in the empty space you left
I spent a lifetime building ghosts of who you are
While you were busy chasing every flickering star
You only see the angles that reflect your face
Leaving me to wander in your hollow space
(Chorus)
This is the fracture, the break in the line
The part where I take back what’s rightfully mine
I’m tired of the cycle, the bruise, and the burn
Tired of the lessons I shouldn’t have to learn
Over and over, the record just spins
But this is the part where my story begins
(Verse 2)
You offer up a "sorry" like a hollow shell
Then hide your fabrications in a wishing well
But the water’s running dry and the games are getting old
Your excuses are a currency that’s losing its gold
One of these days, you’ll reach for a wall
And find there’s nothing left to break your fall
(Chorus)
This is the fracture, the break in the line
The part where I take back what’s rightfully mine
I’m tired of the cycle, the bruise, and the burn
Tired of the lessons I shouldn’t have to learn
Over and over, the record just spins
But this is the part where my story begins
(Synth Solo - Upbeat and melodic with bass)
(Bridge)
You say you love me, that you’ll never let go
But "love" is just a shadow in your one-man show
Words aren't enough to stitch up the pride
Of a heart you’ve spent years trying to override
So here is the silence, here is the line
I’m crossing it now, and I’m doing just fine
(Chorus)
This is the fracture, the break in the line
The part where I take back what’s rightfully mine
I’m tired of the cycle, the bruise, and the burn
Tired of the lessons I shouldn’t have to learn
Over and over, the record just spins
But this is the part where my story begins
(Synth Solo - Upbeat and melodic, with bass)
(Outro)
Goodbye to the games
Goodbye to the blame
I’m starting over
And I’m dropping your name.
