## Lyrics

**Verse**

Week two, the holidays drag on  
Our plan is to get through  
The parks and picnics, they have gone  
And that is fine, it's true  


**Chorus**

Half past three, I'm barely alive  
The part nobody shows  
Cold tea, loud house, still I survive  
The part everyone knows  


**Verse**

A cup of tea you drink while hot  
A little walk, then back  
Ten happy seconds, that's a lot  
Then stop before they crack  


**Chorus**

Half past three, I'm barely alive  
The part nobody shows  
Cold tea, loud house, still I survive  
The part everyone knows  


**Bridge**

You scroll past someone's perfect day  
Nobody's crying there  
One good second, picked for display  
The rest, they didn't share  


**Chorus**

Half past three, I'm barely alive  
The part nobody shows  
Cold tea, loud house, still I survive  
The part everyone knows  


**Outro**

Good enough for today  
Week two, and you're okay
