Same Day, Same Scream

Wake up

Again

Same song playing on the radio

Same crack in the ceiling — same shadow

Trip over yesterday’s warning signs

Smile like I don’t already know how this goes

Coffee’s cold — blood on the floor

Swore I fixed this once before

Every scream feels déjà vu

Happy birthday — guess I’m through

I can map it in my head

Every step — every breath

If I’m late — if I’m dead

I just wake up instead

Same day — same scream

Cut the lights — cue the scene

Make a wish — blow the flame

Kill me again

Smile wide — sharp routine

Knife shines like it’s brand new clean

Wrap it up — tie the string

Happy death day to me

Again.

Again.

Again.

Tried the door — still locked tight

Died before I made it outside

Switched the plan — changed the time

Still end up flatlined by nine-oh-five

Started counting all the ways

Poisoned cake and broken blades

Laugh track in my dying breath

Guess this loop won’t end itself

If I learn — if I fail

If I bleed — if I bail

Push reset — break the spell

Or rot inside this carousel

Same day — same scream

Cut the lights — cue the scene

Make a wish — blow the flame

Kill me again

Smile wide — sharp routine

Knife shines like it’s brand new clean

Wrap it up — tie the string

Happy death day to me

Poisoned

Stabbed

Hit the ground

Wake back up!

Run, trip, fall, dead

Again!

Burn, break, lose my head

Again!

Syringe, blade, hospital bed

Again!

"I’m getting really good at this"

Again!

Again!

Again!

Same day — same scream

I don’t flinch — I don’t dream

If this hell keeps looping me

I’ll die till I’m free

Candles melt — same routine

Cut the cord — crash the scene

One last wish — count to three

End this birthday with me

Again
