Glass Towers Lament

Morning greetings, they all sound the same Empty chatter, forgetting names [Pre-Chorus] We're chasing deadlines, in rows of fabric cells Just like clockwork, under fluorescent spells Another memo, it's all so systemic In this daily grind, feeling so apathetic Cubicles align in a grey row, feels disconnected Same coffee cups, we're all dejected Stare at the screen, feeling neglected CHORUS: 2x I feel drained, yet you're asking for more of me Routine's grip, baby, why can't we break free? Minutes crawl, can't watch the ticking clock Each tick's a scream, in this corporate block Heartbeat syncs with the printer's dance Lost in spreadsheets, a numbing trance CHORUS: 2x I need space but the walls close in on me Lunchtime clicks, but it's just another scene Plastic smiles, in the breakroom's sheen [Pre-Chorus] We count the hours, 'til fading light The office hums, but there's no delight And daydreams clash with the ringing phones In these glass towers, just skin and bones
