People are shaking off the week like a coat they've been wearing too long — there's a collective exhale, a permission slip to stop bracing and just exist for two days.
Two Days, No Armor
Verse 1
We've been carrying the weight of every Tuesday
Clocking out the minutes till they blur
Somebody left the window cracked on Friday
And we all smelled something we'd forgotten — air
Pre-Chorus
The phones go face-down on the table
The shoulders drop an inch or two
We don't have to be responsible or able
For forty-eight hours, we get to be new
Chorus
Forget about your worry, everybody
Let the week dissolve into the floor
We made it through the grinding and the heavy
Two days with nothing we are obligated for
Forget about your worry
We are here, we are here
No more waiting for permission to be easy
The weekend finally found us, and we're clear
Bridge
We don't know what's coming Monday morning
We don't need to name it tonight
Something loosens in a crowd that's stopped performing
Laughter sounds a little less polite
Outro
Everybody, everybody
Put it down, put it down
We've been standing at attention for so long now
Let somebody else hold up the town
Everybody — rest.
