boring time

**Verse 1**

The clock is making circles on the wall,

The afternoon forgot to fall.

A cup of coffee, cold and grey,

Has nothing new to say today.

The window shows the same old street,

The same old shoes, the same old feet.

A little dust, a little light,

Another hour dressed in white.

**Chorus**

It’s a boring time,

Nothing breaks, nothing shines.

Just the slow parade

Of minutes fading into lines.

It’s a boring time,

But I’m still here, still alive,

Watching empty seconds

Learn to survive.

**Verse 2**

The radio is breathing low,

A song I almost used to know.

The ceiling cracks, the curtains sigh,

A plane moves through a tired sky.

No revolution in the rain,

No secret burning in my name.

Just me and all this quiet space,

With boredom sitting face to face.

**Chorus**

It’s a boring time,

Nothing breaks, nothing shines.

Just the slow parade

Of minutes fading into lines.

It’s a boring time,

But I’m still here, still alive,

Watching empty seconds

Learn to survive.

**Bridge**

Maybe life is not a flame,

Maybe silence has a name.

Maybe nothing happening

Is still some kind of happening.

**Final Chorus**

It’s a boring time,

Soft and pale, almost kind.

No grand design,

No thunder in the mind.

It’s a boring time,

But the night will come through,

And even boring hours

Are carrying me to you.
