Sprinting on Empty

Lyrics
**[Song Intro - Instrumental]** **[Intro]** Here I stand, my coffee's cold, the day's begun, Another sprint, another round, nowhere to run. **[Verse 1]** I logged in, eyes bleary, with my tasks unclear, "Stand-up time!" they cheer, but I'm just stuck in gear. Post-its haunt my dreams, this board's a colorful mess, Sprints feel like marathons, oh, this endless stress. **[Instrumental - PreChorus - Build up]** **[Chorus]** Sprinting on empty, chasing the clock, Agile's a puzzle, I'm just a block. Stories and points that never align, Oh, why can't my backlog just decline? **[Verse 2]** Estimates are guessing games I always lose, "Make it fit," they say, but there’s no time to snooze. Burndown charts, they mock me, nothing's burning down, Friday deployments? More like a meltdown. **[Chorus]** Sprinting on empty, chasing the clock, Agile's a puzzle, I'm just a block. Stories and points that never align, Oh, why can't my backlog just decline? **[Bridge]** **[Guitar Solo]** **[Bridge]** **[Guitar Solo]** **[Bridge]** Retrospective meetings, supposed to clear the air, Yet here we go again, it feels like no one cares. Action points piling, but what really changed? Next sprint’s déjà vu, just re-arranged. **[Verse 3]** Daily scrums, they drag, as we stand and speak, Progress is sluggish, outlook’s looking bleak. "Let's pivot," someone shouts, but I just sigh, Another buzzword flies, as deadlines loom nigh. **[Chorus]** Sprinting on empty, chasing the clock, Agile's a puzzle, I'm just a block. Stories and points that never align, Oh, why can't my backlog just decline? So here's to the sprints, where we barely cope, Holding on to the thin thread of hope. May our tasks grow fewer, and our spirits not fray, In the Agile game, we reluctantly play. **[Chorus]** Sprinting on empty, chasing the clock, Agile's a puzzle, I'm just a block. Stories and points that never align, Oh, why can't my backlog just decline?
