6 Feet Deep in the Echoes

Lyrics

[INTRO] Slow synth rises, a gentle country twang in the background, the distant hum of a bass line building. [VERSE 1] I’m grinding through the mornin’ haze, coffee on the back of my tongue, The radio’s low and the world keeps spinin’, I’m never really won. Work never stops, there’s always something else to do, My soul’s a tired road, the highway’s paved with a thousand blues. [CHORUS] Once I’m 6 feet deep, I’ll be closer to hell, But I’m stuck on the ground where the river runs slow and swell. One day off, a dream that’s cold and bright, The weight of all the lines I’ve drawn in the night. [VERSE 2] The office lights flicker like the stars that used to guide, My hands are shaking, but I keep writing this broken line. There’s a beat in every sigh, a wobble in the pain, I’m a cowboy in a city, riding the same refrain. [CHORUS] Once I’m 6 feet deep, I’ll be closer to hell, The world keeps turning, the clock’s a relentless spell. One day off, but it’s no help, a false reprieve, The night’s a thunderstorm I can’t believe. [BRIDGE] Drop the bass, let the synths collide, a dubstep storm in the desert night, I hear the echo of my thoughts, they’re a storm that won’t subside. I’m a lonesome trail rider with a guitar in my hand, I keep driving forward, but the road keeps shifting in sand. [CHORUS] Once I’m 6 feet deep, I’ll be closer to hell, The weight of the world’s on my shoulders, I’m still standing, still fell. One day off, but I’m still chasing the sun, I’m a cowboy with a bassline, and I’ll keep running. [OUTRO] The echo fades, the guitar hums a lullaby, and the bass slowly dissolves into a quiet rustle of wind, as the day ends.
