Flip the Script

[Verse] Thoughts heavy as my eyelids, roof could use some repairs Heart feeling like a sandbox, emotions scattered, sands turn to tears Nighttime talks with the ceiling, even shadows got secrets Grief like a shadow, lurking, trying to keep it low-key, but I peep it [Chorus] Flip the script, fighting phantoms in the night Turn the frown into a sunbeam, shifting pain into light Sadness tugging on my hoodie strings, but I don’t give up easily Eyes wet from the storm, soul dry, still rising breezily [Verse 2] Ripped jeans and broken dreams, ink spills from my veins Tear-streaks on dusty vinyls, drowning in sorrow rains Swallowed by the fog, grasping for a silver lining Mental gravity pulling down, looking up, stars aligning [Chorus] Flip the script, fighting phantoms in the night Turn the frown into a sunbeam, shifting pain into light Sadness tugging on my hoodie strings, but I don’t give up easily Eyes wet from the storm, soul dry, still rising breezily [Verse 3] Painted on a canvas of woes, color streaks of despair Life a gallery of sorrows, brush strokes, tender care Polaroids of pain, locked away in mental boxes Toss ‘em in the fire, phoenix rise from ashes toxic [Bridge] Caught in a storm, but I dance with my shades on Umbrella in my soul, conflicts fade, feeling strong Rain turns to confetti, emotions drip in technicolor Melancholy symphony plays, switch game, flip another
