Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Woke up early, to the sound of the clock,
Dragging my feet, 'cause the grind never stops.
Another day, in this office chair,
Gray walls closing in, it’s a never-ending stare.
(Pre-Chorus)
Coffee in my cup, but it can't fill the void,
Lost in the shuffle, just another cog employed.
Dreams on the shelf, collecting dust,
In this 9 to 5, who can I trust?
(Chorus)
From 9 to 5, we’re living in a haze,
Clocking in and out, just counting the days.
9 to 5, where did our dreams go?
Stuck in the rhythm, moving so slow.
(Verse 2)
Emails and deadlines, never seem to end,
Lost in the numbers, can’t even pretend.
Office small talk, about the weather outside,
But inside we're screaming, nowhere to hide.
(Pre-Chorus)
Meetings and memos, voices droning on,
In this daily grind, where has my spirit gone?
Chasing the weekend, but it’s just a tease,
In this 9 to 5, we’re begging for release.
(Chorus)
From 9 to 5, we’re living in a haze,
Clocking in and out, just counting the days.
9 to 5, where did our dreams go?
Stuck in the rhythm, moving so slow.
(Bridge)
Tick-tock, goes the clock, can’t escape the sound,
In the sea of cubicles, we're all bound.
But in the silence, a whisper grows,
A dream of freedom, a life we chose.
(Verse 3)
Monday morning blues, to Friday’s false delight,
We fake a smile, but we’re losing the fight.
Counting minutes, till we’re free once more,
But Monday’s lurking, right outside the door.
(Chorus)
From 9 to 5, we’re living in a haze,
Clocking in and out, just counting the days.
9 to 5, where did our dreams go?
Stuck in the rhythm, moving so slow.
(Outro)
But maybe one day, we’ll break these chains,
Find our passions, dance in the rain.
Until that moment, we’ll survive,
Holding on, from 9 to 5.
From 9 to 5, we’re living in a haze,
Clocking in and out, just counting the days.
9 to 5, where did our dreams go?
Stuck in the rhythm, moving so slow.
