Question

Create a rap that had a midwest emo vide to it and make the lyrics very heart breaking of friend group issues and having a secret crush on one of them
and one of the lyricts are
I wish for better days but wishing never did, anything

Answer 1

(Beat: brittle guitar loop, brushed snare, distant subway hum)

Verse 1
Basement show glow, sneakers on linoleum, laughing like we’re fine
Your laugh cuts through the static, it’s a radio stuck on time
We trade old jokes like currency, I counterfeit a smile
Counting quiet reasons why I never speak when you look my way for a while
You lean on Jonah’s shoulder, the couch sags under rumors
I sip cold coffee that tastes like apologies and fewer summers
My phone vibrates with group-chat ghosts, blue ticks and nothing more
I’ll be the glue that cracks in silence on this cracked linoleum floor

Pre-Hook (half-sung, half-spoken)
I hold a map of words I never say, folded up inside my fist
There’s a skyline in your eyes, and I keep missing it
If honesty was gasoline I’d burn this town to ash
Instead I light my cigarette and watch the good things pass

Hook (melancholy, repeated)
I wish for better days but wishing never did, anything
So I trace your name in condensation on the windowpane I cling
To the echo of our laughter, now a chorus with a sting
I wish for better days but wishing never did, anything

Verse 2
You said we were forever, like cheap tattoos on pale skin
But forever frays in doorframes when the night pulls all its pins
We split like subway lines, some of us take the express
Someone picked a side and mapped the exit, there’s a silence in the rest
Danny’s mom called asking who I was in your last midnight text
“We’re fine,” I typed, which is the lie that hurt the most, I guess
They parade apologies like favors, like they owe the world a peace
But scars need stitches more than speeches, and I’m folding like a crease

Pre-Hook
I keep replaying stupid scenes, the chorus stuck on loop
You pass me like a comet, I orbit, cheap and mute
If courage was a currency I’d pay in debts and late fees
Instead I stitch my tongue with band-aids and address

Hook (slow build)
I wish for better days but wishing never did, anything
So I trace your name in condensation on the windowpane I cling
You laugh and the room reorders, I’m a margin on the page
I wish for better days but wishing never did, anything

Bridge (spoken, vulnerable)
Remember when we swore we’d take the highway out of here?
We got rained out on the interstate, our tickets dissolved in beer
I watched you kiss the sunrise on somebody else’s cheek
And all I did was call you pretty to the ceiling till it leaked
I wrote sonnets in the margins of the movie stubs we kept
You kept them in your pocket like a secret you almost let
I’m not brave enough to be the hero in this suburban myth
So I ghost between the punchlines, holding on to what I miss

Verse 3 (confessional)
If I said I loved you would the room implode or gently bend?
Would your hand find mine like magnets on a piece of rusted fence?
I practice on the mirror, words tangle, heartbreak on rewind
You step into the doorway and suddenly I’m out of time
Friendship is a weather vane, it points wherever wind decides
Mine’s spinning toward whatever corner of your shadow hides
I pick up all the pieces that you drop without a thought
And tuck them in my pockets like contraband, like what I ought

Final Hook (soft, resigned)
I wish for better days but wishing never did, anything
So I trace your name in condensation on the windowpane I cling
This house is full of echoes, we’re all learning how to leave
I wish for better days but wishing never did, anything

Outro (whisper)
Maybe someday I’ll say the lines before the chorus fades
Maybe someday our laughter won’t be haunted by mistakes
Until then I’ll mouth your name like prayer, like secret hymn
And fold it into quiet pockets where regret and longing swim
