Night Shift Heartbeat

Clocked in late

Same old playlist, same old gate

Shoes on sticky floor

Dreams on clearance by the door

Barcode beeping

But my brain’s on a stage I’m seeing

Scanning chips, scanning gum

But the beat in my chest goes dumb (yeah)

I got a night shift heartbeat

Thumping through these busted speakers

Faded name tag on my chest

But I move like I’m the leader

Turn this aisle into a mosh pit

Turn this counter to a throne

I got a night shift heartbeat

And it’s dragging me home, home, home

Boss man talking

Mouth on loop, but my head keeps walking

Phone in the drawer

Still I hear that crowd want more

Fluorescent ceiling

Can’t kill this restless feeling

Cart wheels squeak in time

To the hook that I hum on the grind (hey!)

I got a night shift heartbeat

Thumping through these busted speakers

Faded name tag on my chest

But I move like I’m the leader

Turn this aisle into a mosh pit

Turn this counter to a throne

I got a night shift heartbeat

And it’s dragging me home, home, home

Cash drawer clicks

I’m counting seconds, not these bills

One more sip

Of lukewarm coffee, chasing thrills

When that door locks

I’ll trade this apron for a mic

Same shoes, same socks

Different world when I step in the lights (woah)

I got a night shift heartbeat

Thumping through these busted speakers

Faded name tag on my chest

But I move like I’m the leader

Turn this aisle into a mosh pit

Turn this counter to a throne

I got a night shift heartbeat

And it’s dragging me home, home, home
