Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Woke up this morning, sun shining bright,
But my head's still heavy from last night's fight.
Coffee's brewing, but it ain't strong enough,
Bills in the mailbox, life is getting tough.
In my thirties now, dreams off to the side,
Juggling all these roles--it's a bumpy ride.
Kids need rides to school, and the dog's at my feet,
Got my hands full, trying to stay on my feet.
[Chorus]
Oh, adulting is hard--I'm losing the thread,
Trying to find balance in the chaos instead.
The nights used to be wild, dancing under the stars,
Now I'm driving my kids and fixing up scars.
Oh, adulting is hard, but I'm holding on tight,
With laughter and love, we'll make it through the night.
[Verse 2]
I miss the late nights, just a carefree soul,
Now it's homework and lunches, my life's on patrol.
Got a teenage girl who's finding her way,
And a little boy's laughter brightens up my day.
But some days I wonder if I've lost my spark,
Chasing dreams while treading in the dark.
With deadlines and responsibilities piling high,
Just a single mom wearing a hopeful sigh.
[Chorus]
Oh, adulting is hard--I'm losing the thread,
Trying to find balance in the chaos instead.
The nights used to be wild, dancing under the stars,
Now I'm driving my kids and fixing up scars.
Oh, adulting is hard, but I'm holding on tight,
With laughter and love, we'll make it through the night.
[Instrumental break]
[Bridge]
There's beauty in chaos, in the love we share,
In simple moments, in hearts laid bare.
So I'll keep on dancing in the kitchen light,
Finding joy in the mess--we'll be alright.
[Chorus]
Oh, adulting is hard--I'm losing the thread,
Trying to find balance in the chaos instead.
The nights used to be wild, dancing under the stars,
Now I'm driving my kids and fixing up scars.
Oh, adulting is hard, but I'm holding on tight,
With laughter and love, we'll make it through the night.
[Outro]
So here's to the struggles, the laughter, the tears,
On this journey of life, we'll quiet the fears.
Adulting is hard, but together we stand,
With my heart wide open, holding your hand.
