Off work

Liner Notes
I’ve been off work for a while. I’ve had a time adjusting to this new reality.
Lyrics
Off work amethyst bird@Fawm2025
Time is loose like Unset jello Out walking more For random hellos
I try to skip Looking at my bills But I told the boss to go to hell.
My day is open I should be thrilled But it’s the first time I’ve had to kill …
So much time I’m off work You think it’s fine But it’s not a quirk It’s limbo land and I’m off work
I could have fun But I just don’t Scarcity has Got me choked
When friends ask me What I’m doing today I lie and tell them It’s a stay-cay
So much time I’m off work You think it’s fine But it’s not a quirk It’s limbo land and I’m off work
I’ve been reflecting where is my place? Won’t jump back fast to the rat race. Can’t wait too long to reinvent The newest version of myself
There is a reason that I left But the empty hours Have me bereft
So much time I’m off work You think it’s fine But it’s not a quirk It’s limbo land and I’m off work
I should spend My days in sun My newest hobby The to do’s done
But all this Unstructured Unknownness Is giving me a lot of stress
So much time I’m off work You think it’s fine But it’s not a quirk It’s limbo land and I’m off work
Comments
I've been there, and a lot of this is relatable. Love the "unset jello" line. Oh, and to-do's done.
"it's the first time / i've had to kill" is a great way to write that sentiment. very relatable storytelling through your lyrics.
