Lyrics:

Morning light across the room,
Another day has come.
I sit up, breathe, and realize
I’m lucky just to see the sun.

I’m older than I used to be,
And time goes faster now.
But every day still matters,
And I’m learning that somehow.

A gentle collapse,
Yet here I stand again.
I don’t know what tomorrow brings,
But today feels like a friend.

A gentle collapse,
But my heart still beats strong.
I’ll try to make the most of it,
Before the day is gone.

I rushed through so much in my youth,
Afraid to fall behind.
Now I stop and drink my coffee,
Let quiet settle in my mind.

Not every dream worked out,
And some roads led astray.
But I’m thankful for the chance
To wake up one more day.

A gentle collapse,
Written in the lines I wear.
But I’m still here to live and love,
And breathe the open air.

A gentle collapse,
Yet I feel light inside.
The years have made me softer,
But they’ve never dimmed my pride.
