MADRIGAL - Wasted time

Progressive rock.

Lyrics: José Rosário
All instrumentals and vocals were generated in AI environments.
Artificial intelligence is a tool of infinite possibilities, guided by the artistic vision of the person who uses it. Instrumental compositions, as well as styles and even timbres, are developed through numerous attempts, which generally involve many errors and successes until a final result is achieved. New times in the musical creation process that combine creativity, technology, and a lot of patience.

WASTED TIME

Morning breaks, but I’m already gone,
Running shadows down the line.
Every hour slips through my hands,
Like a heartbeat out of time.

And I whisper to the silence,
“Is this all I’m meant to be?”
Chasing echoes of a future
That I never stop to see.

I’m rushing through the days I never live,
Trading moments for a promise I can’t give.
All these seconds fall like rain,
But I never feel them on my skin.
I’m rushing through a life I should’ve lived.

City lights, they blur like memories,
Names and faces fade away.
I keep moving just to stay upright,
But I’m losing parts of me each day.

Tell me where the quiet went,
Where the gentle hours hide.
I’ve been spinning on the surface,
Afraid to look inside.

I’m rushing through the days I never live,
Trading moments for a promise I can’t give.
All these seconds fall like rain,
But I never feel them on my skin.
I’m rushing through a life I should’ve lived.

If I stop, will the world stop with me?
If I breathe, will I finally begin?
Let the ticking fade to silence,
Let me learn to let life in.

No more rushing through the days I want to live,
I’ll reclaim the time I used to give.
Let the moments land like rain,
I’ll finally feel them on my skin.
No more running from the life I’ve yet to live.
