Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Late at night, I'm staring at my screen
Drowning in the comments, lost in the pull request
Lines of code, endless red and green
Trying to merge, but it's a never-ending test
[Chorus]
Oh, the long review, it's tearing me apart
I'm caught in this endless cycle, can't find my start
Oh, the long review, it's breaking my soul
I just want to merge and let my code take control
[Verse 2]
Sitting in the darkness, staring at my screen
Lines of code, reflections of my hopes and dreams (dreams)
But every time I push, it's a struggle to get through
The endless rounds of reviews, I don't know what to do
[Chorus]
Oh, the long review, it's tearing me apart
I'm caught in this endless cycle, can't find my start
Oh, the long review, it's breaking my soul
I just want to merge and let my code take control
[Verse 3]
I pour my heart into every line, every commit
But it seems like no one understands, they just nitpick (nitpick)
I try to make it right, but they keep changing the rules
In this twisted game of merge requests, I'm the fool
[Chorus]
Oh, the long review, it's tearing me apart
I'm caught in this endless cycle, can't find my start
Oh, the long review, it's breaking my soul
I just want to merge and let my code take control
[Verse 4]
I'm sitting here, staring at my screen
Lines of code, a programmer's dream (dream)
But in this world, the struggle is real
Merge request reviews, it's time to reveal (ooh-yeah)
[Chorus]
Oh, the long review, it's tearing me apart
I'm caught in this endless cycle, can't find my start
Oh, the long review, it's breaking my soul
I just want to merge and let my code take control
[Outro]
Every line I write, I pour my heart and soul
But the feedback comes, tearing me apart, taking its toll (taking its toll)
I try my best, but it's never enough
Merge conflicts arise, it's getting tough (oooh)
[Guitar and drum solo]
[Fade out]
