I had NOTHING. I decided to rest today with so much time left and only 3 to do.
I had this title, but no... rest
But Madame La Muse had other ideas (it's not even about what I wanted it to be about!)
We want to see the sun
Doesn't everyone
We'd like to see the sun
Now we've done
We want to go and play
Maybe every day
We'd like to go and play
Now we've done
As we near the end
Try to catch our breath
We have to wear the smile
You expect
From us
And as we near the end
We'll gladly step aside
Let some other child
Take the ride
We gave up having fun
Doesn't everyone
We gave up having fun
And now we're done
You promised us we'd win
And losing was a sin
You promised us we'd win
If we tried
As we near the end
Try to catch our breath
We have to wear the smile
You expect
From us
And as we near the end
Let us run and hide
We just need to leave
And
Die

This is really cool - love the kinda creepy vibe of the verse and then the lovely change up in your chorus. I also love how you followed where this song took you. Really interesting and memorable melodic journey and the interesting music delivered the kinda serious lyrics very effectively.
