Intro
Still pending...
Verse 1
Seven left, you line 'em on the counter like a Sunday ritual Tuesday's slot already empty in the case, that's unusual Call the pharmacy at nine, prior auth is still processing She shrugs it off, the morning light feels golden, almost blessing Coffee steam curls past your wrist, the capsules catch the sun Seven feels like plenty when you don't know what's to come
Pre-chorus
You tell yourself it's fine, you always tell yourself it's fine The voicemail lady sounds so warm for someone reading off a line
Chorus
Still pending, still pending Count what I got left, keep pretending Still pending, still pending This number only descending
Verse 2
Four left, you split the Wednesday dose in half to stretch the math Forty minutes hold, your lunch break bleeding through the hourglass Prior authorization, she says it flat, like reading off a receipt Hands are shaking but you blame the cold brew, tuck them underneath Coworkers laugh at something on a screen, you nod on cue Nobody's counting what you're counting, you would never tell them to
Pre-chorus
You tell yourself it's fine, you always tell yourself it's fine The formulary switched in January, they cut you from the file
Chorus
Still pending, still pending Count what I got left, keep pretending Still pending, still pending This number only descending
Verse 3
Two left and it's 2 AM, your phone screen burns against the sheets You Google what the withdrawal does, every forum thread repeats The same description of the crawling underneath your skin at night You think about just asking someone, but you don't know anyone, right The softness in the air is thinning and you're noticing the weight Of everything the milligrams were holding back behind the gate
Verse 4
One left, you hold it in your palm a long, long time Smaller than a pencil eraser but it's carrying your whole design You swallow knowing tomorrow comes unmedicated, uninsured Call the doctor's office, voicemail, third time this week, you've heard Your message sounds so calm but something in your jaw won't sit The soft around you getting thinner, you can feel the edge of it
Verse 5
Zero and the morning's too loud, too bright, too everything at once Shower water hits like voltage, toothpaste stings, the ceiling confronts You with spinning you can't stop, mascara, keys, the same commute Same parking spot, same elevator, same fluorescent suit Nobody asks because you taught them, years of I'm okay on repeat You sit down at your desk and feel the soft begin to retreat
Chorus
Still pending, still pending Count what I got left, keep pretending Still pending, still pending This number only descending Still pending... still pending...
Inside the recording
Still pending...
You tell yourself it's fine, you always tell yourself it's fine The voicemail lady sounds so warm for someone reading off a line
Still pending, still pending Count what I got left, keep pretending
