[Intro]
Tick-tock, the grind don’t stop, yeah
Midnight oil burnin' low
Clock in & clock out, my shadow’s grown
Here I go, here I go
[Verse 1]
Sunrise hits the dirt, workin' long and hard
Steel toes on the ground, life’s a quarter card
Whiskey in the jar, dreams we can’t afford
Clock in & clock out, never quite restored
[Pre-Chorus]
Nightfall creeps like a thief in the dark
Lost in the rut, got no spark
This broken clock keeps spinnin' 'round
In this cold town, I’m bound
[Chorus]
Clock in & clock out, just another day
Livin' on the edge, gotta make my way
Shadow of the past, hangin' down low
Clock in & clock out, where’s the light, I don’t know
[Verse 2]
Empty bottles and broken dreams, streets are cracked
Lonesome whistle hums, can't turn back
Faded picture frames, memories so loud
Clock in & clock out, lost in the crowd
[Pre-Chorus]
Nightfall creeps like a thief in the dark
Lost in the rut, got no spark
This broken clock keeps spinnin' 'round
In this cold town, I’m bound
[Chorus]
Clock in & clock out, just another day
Livin' on the edge, gotta make my way
Shadow of the past, hangin' down low
Clock in & clock out, where’s the light, I don’t know
[Bridge]
Echoes of the past, ring like a bell
Silent screams inside this shell
One more hour, one more round
In this cold, dark town
[Outro]
Tick-tock, the day’s gone cold
Clock in & clock out, stories untold
Knockin' off these chains, gotta break free
Clock in & clock out, just to be me
