Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Alarm rings at six, another day begins
Fresh pressed suit and my makeup's perfect
But my coffee sits here on the counter
As I rush to catch the seven-fifteen train
Phone keeps buzzing with the morning briefing
While I rehearse my presentation one more time
Just another Monday morning racing
And my coffee's getting cold again
[Chorus]
This is what I wanted, isn't it?
Corner office, climbing higher every day
But sometimes in the silence I admit
My coffee's getting cold again
(Getting cold again)
[Verse 2]
Meeting after meeting, deadlines stack
Got my game face on but I'm running on empty
Susan asks if I can take her clients
While my lunch break slips away untouched
Staring at spreadsheets till my eyes are burning
As the afternoon sun fades to grey
Think about calling, just to hear your voice
But my coffee's getting cold again
[Chorus]
This is what I wanted, isn't it?
Corner office, climbing higher every day
But sometimes in the silence I admit
My coffee's getting cold again
(Getting cold again)
[Bridge]
Remember when we used to take our time?
Sunday mornings, papers, fresh caffeine
Now success tastes different than I thought
But I'm too far in to stop
[Verse 3]
Clock strikes five but I'm still at my desk
Pride and pressure keep me pushing forward
Yeah, I made it, but what did it cost me?
All these moments slipping through my hands
Maybe tomorrow I'll find the balance
Between the life I chase and life I live
For now I'll pour another cup of courage
'Cause my coffee's getting cold again
[Chorus]
This is what I wanted, isn't it?
Corner office, climbing higher every day
But sometimes in the silence I admit
My coffee's getting cold again
(Getting cold again)
(Getting cold again)
