Average Dad - Stand-up Blues Lyrics

Morning light spills across my screen
Coffee's cold, another routine scene
Leading faces in their tiny squares
Same old stories, floating in the air
I guide the ship but my mind's adrift
Clock ticks slowly, can't escape this shift
Oh, these daily stand-ups wear me thin
Round and round, we just begin again
Not a mountain, just a weary hill
Counting moments 'till the world stands still
Baby's laughter echoes down the hall
Reminds me why I juggle it all
Numbers crunching, emails never cease
Chasing deadlines but I find no peace
They depend on me to lead the way
But this monotony just shades my day
Oh, these daily stand-ups wear me thin
Same old circles, where do I fit in?
Not a battle, just a silent war
Waiting for the knock upon my door.
