hazzler - Burning the Midnight Oil Lyrics

Eyes on the prize, but the price is steep
Burning the midnight oil, promises we keep

Books stacked high, another endless night
Chasing dreams, but losing sight
Grades define our worth, a never-ending fight
Stress and pressure, stealing all the light

Running on fumes, hearts on fire
In this race, the stakes are higher
Burnout looms, dreams expire
Under academic pressure, walking the wire

Classroom walls, closing in so tight
Future on the line, in this sleepless plight
Every test a battle, every score a height
Perfection's a mirage, fading out of sight

(Silent cries, beneath the strain)
Need to breathe, to break the chain
Not alone, in this fight for gain
Together we'll find, a way to sustain

Running on fumes, hearts on fire
In this race, the stakes are higher
Burnout looms, dreams expire
Under academic pressure, walking the wire

Step back, reclaim our mind
In the balance, strength we'll find
Beyond the grades, a future kind
Leaving the pressure, peace of mind
