Waiting For A Miracle - Dressed to kill

The project that began as music therapy and quickly became something more...

Inspiration: the near-endless war that happens in my head, the frustration I feel at myself forgetting things, failing to read social cues... essentially just frustration being ADHD and autistic

LYRICS

Why's my brain like this, why can't I see?
Focus lost in the fog, it's all a mystery
They say I'm lazy, that I'm just makin' up excuses
But in my head, man, I feel like I'm always on the loose

Attention skippin' like stones on a restless sea
I miss the social cues, they all pointing at me
Echoes in my brain, they twist, they shout,
Why this chaos in me, trapped in doubt?

Why's my brain feel like a battlefield?
Attention's lost, my mind can't stay still
Strugglin' with focus, every thought just slips
Can't read the cues, it's like I'm adrift

Why is my brain this way, can't understand
Attention goes, dissipates like sand
All my thoughts, they just slip away
Focus lost, in the daily fray

Stuck in hyperdrive, my thoughts collide,
In the mirror, questioning what's inside,

Why's my brain feel like a battlefield?
Attention's lost, my mind can't stay still
Strugglin' with focus, every thought just slips
Can't read the cues, it's like I'm adrift

Why am I this way? (this way)
Why am I this way!

Why's my brain feel like a battlefield?
Attention's lost, my mind can't stay still
Strugglin' with focus, every thought just slips
Can't read the cues, it's like I'm adrift

Like a battlefield!
Like a battlefield!

Why's my brain feel like a battlefield?
