Abby London’s latest single, “I Can’t Be on Time,” is less of a song and more of a confession whispered into the void. Wrapped in dreamy ambient textures and slow-burning alt-pop production, this track is a raw, poetic exploration of what it feels like to exist out of sync, not just with the clock, but with the world’s expectations.

From the opening line “Time is beating me,” Abby sets the emotional tone: fragile, tired, but defiantly honest. Her vocals float in and out like late thoughts at 2 a.m., perfectly synced with the moody, understated beat. Think Frou Frou meets Bat for Lashe, but with Abby’s signature theatrical flair and deep lyrical introspection.
The chorus hits like a journal entry: “Didn’t I wanna know how to be on time?” not just logistically, but spiritually, creatively, personally. It’s a cry for understanding in a world obsessed with perfection and punctuality. The songwriting is sharp yet dreamlike, holding tension between frustration and acceptance.

“I Can’t Be on Time” isn’t an apology. It’s a statement. It’s for anyone who’s ever felt like they’re constantly catching up, and finally decided to stop sprinting.
