[Verse 1]
Wake up late
Same ceiling stain
Same coffee going cold
Scrolling through my own complaints
Same small town
Big talk, blank page
Years drifting like smoke
I just laughed at the clock face
[Pre-Chorus]
Thought I had time to waste
Thought the runway was endless space
Now that glare in the mirror
Got an old man’s trace
[Chorus]
I almost ran out of time
Blink once, whole decade gone by
Lived safe on the sideline
Never learned how to fly
Now the end’s in sight, and I
Can’t rewind, can’t press retry
I almost ran out of time
(What do I do now, what do I do now?)
[Verse 2]
Doctor said
“Hey, we should talk”
White walls, thin air
Words echo when you walk
Charts, scans
Lines I can’t read
All I heard was a countdown
Moving under my feet
[Pre-Chorus]
All the “one day” dreams
Stuffed in the back of my brain
Suddenly scream in color
While everything else goes gray
[Chorus]
I almost ran out of time
Blink once, whole decade gone by
Lived safe on the sideline
Never learned how to fly
Now the end’s in sight, and I
Can’t rewind, can’t press retry
I almost ran out of time
(What do I do now, what do I do now?)
[Bridge]
If this is the last verse I write
I’m done being half-alive
Call my mom, tell her I’m sorry
For saying “later” every time
Text that friend I ghosted
Forgive myself in the same line
If this is the last night I get
I’m gonna live it like it’s not mine
[Chorus]
I almost ran out of time
But this breath right here is mine
Step out from the sideline
Feel the fear and still climb
If the end’s in sight, then I
Won’t rewind, I’ll redefine
I almost ran out of time
(I’m living now, I’m living now)
[Outro]
One more chord
One more try
If this is it
Let me feel alive
