my brain needs a break

“My Brain Needs a Break” Verse 1 Alarm goes off, my thoughts all race Too many problems in one small space Coffee shaking in my hand I need a beach, not one more demand My phone is buzzing, bills are due Somebody needs me, something’s new I’m smiling like I’m doing fine But my last nerve just crossed the line Pre-Chorus Pressure here, drama there I got stress in my hair Laughing loud so I don’t scream Somebody wake me from this dream Chorus I’m losing my mental wellness Dancing through the madness Laughing so I don’t cry Waving to my peace goodbye Spinning like a ceiling fan Trying hard to stay on plan If life keeps piling on this way My brain might take a holiday Verse 2 I made a list, then lost the list Forgot the thing I almost missed Walked in a room, then asked myself “Why did I come here? Lord, help!” They say, “Calm down, take a breath” But I got 92 tabs left One in my head, ten on my screen And three are playing tambourine Pre-Chorus Pressure here, drama there I got stress in my hair Laughing loud so I don’t scream Somebody wake me from this dream Chorus I’m losing my mental wellness Dancing through the madness Laughing so I don’t cry Waving to my peace goodbye Spinning like a ceiling fan Trying hard to stay on plan If life keeps piling on this way My brain might take a holiday Bridge So don’t ask me one more question I’m in emotional congestion My peace packed up and left the room Said, “Girl, I’ll come back next June” I’m not crazy, I’m just tired Overworked and over-wired Trying to keep my crown on straight While stress is eating off my plate Final Chorus I’m losing my mental wellness Dancing through the madness Laughing so I don’t cry Waving to my peace goodbye Spinning like a ceiling fan Trying hard to stay on plan If life keeps piling on this way My brain might take a holiday Outro I need quiet I need space I need snacks And hiding place Don’t call me back Don’t ring my phone My brain and I Are not at home.
