Tally Marks from So Far by hi i'm Case

The days drift by
carelessly.
Can’t catch one if you tried
restlessly.

You’ve been spent,
and you can’t even fend
for yourself.
Is there no one else
who understands?

The sun comes up ahead
right when
you thought you’d
have been
better off dead.

And hope, what’s that mean again?
this never ends,
so tell me can
we find this out ourselves?
and maybe when

do i
shoot for a goal?
Or do i
brace for the impact?

The things you thought you could take back,
we all wish it didn’t work like that.
We lost our bets,
so close to being perfect
but so far away,
so far away.

So, tally off another day.

Watch the scenery
fleetingly.
Catch whatever glimpse
you get to see, before

you’re made to face that way,
blind and unclear. Don’t
crash into your fears so
absent-mindedly.

The fog, clears up ahead.
And for a second, you
let go of the dread.
Then everything goes white, then black, then red.
Wake up.
Shape up,
and don’t you dare ask again,

do i
shoot for a goal?
Or do i
brace for the impact?

The things you thought you could take back,
we all wish it didn’t work like that.
We lost our bets,
so close to being perfect
but so far away,
so far away.

So, tally off another day.

I’m terrified.
I’m losing my mind.
Deflating day by day
when too many things can’t wait.
Ask me if is this enough,
when it’s too much,
this life sucks,
it’s just, i can’t keep up,
i’m locking up.
Slow down.

Do i
shoot for a goal,
or do i
brace for the impact?

The things you thought you could take back,
we all wish it didn’t work like that.
We lost our bets,
so close to being perfect
but so far away,
so far away.

So tally off another day.
