14 Whispers - Midlife Sonata Lyrics

Verse]
He bought a fast car red and shiny
Left his desk job just to feel alive
Wife's still yelling dog's still whining
Needs a spark to reignite the dive

[Verse 2]
Hair dye flowing beard now scruffy
Leather jacket worn to hide the years
Left behind the days less puffy
Screaming loud to drown out all the fears

[Chorus]
Midlife sonata ain't it thrilling
Break the mold start from the floor
Every day's another feeling
Chasing what he had before

[Verse 3]
Kids left the nest he's feeling hollow
Empty house echoes his wild dreams
Wants to lead but scared to follow
Life's a puzzle bursting at the seams

[Bridge]
Old routines they're in the rearview
New adventures call his name
Happiness he starts to pursue
Even if it feels insane

[Verse 4]
Friends all whisper having a laugh
Trading ties for sneakers worn grey
Middle age cuts his stress in half
Finally learns to seize the day
