Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Clock in before the sun
Clock out when it’s done
Fifty calls in my pocket
Still got more to run
My phone won’t shut its mouth
My chest won’t settle down
I keep a smile on my face
While I’m barely hanging around
[Pre-Chorus]
And I’m running on fumes
In these worn-out shoes
Eighties on the board
Still I’m losing
[Chorus]
Eighty hours a week
And I still feel weak
Eighty hours a week
And I still feel weak
I’m doing everything
Still I’m drowning deep
Eighty hours a week
And I still feel weak
[Verse 2]
Boss says, “You’re doing fine”
But I don’t feel fine
I’m answering the same damn thing
Till it chews up my mind
Lunch in the parking lot
Ten minutes, then I’m back
Every day I give my all
Still I feel like I’m falling flat
[Pre-Chorus]
And I’m running on fumes
In these worn-out shoes
Eighties on the board
Still I’m losing
[Chorus]
Eighty hours a week
And I still feel weak
Eighty hours a week
And I still feel weak
I’m doing everything
Still I’m drowning deep
Eighty hours a week
And I still feel weak
[Bridge]
I don’t need a medal
I need a little sleep
I don’t need your “tough it out”
I need a chance to breathe
My mind’s been in a hard place
My heart’s been in the red
If this is what success is
Then success looks dead
[Chorus]
Eighty hours a week
And I still feel weak
Eighty hours a week
And I still feel weak
I’m doing everything
Still I’m drowning deep
Eighty hours a week
And I still feel weak
[Outro]
Tell me how it makes sense
Tell me what I’m worth
When I work and work and work and work
And still feel worse
