Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Alarm clock drill
Same four walls
Same war
Teeth grit paycheck of pain
I punch in on my skull
Morning mirror
Co-worker I can’t stand
That fake smile I rehearse
Just to tear it off again
[Chorus]
I wake up just to fight myself
Eight hours in my own hell
Clock in
Clock out
Same cell
Full time job in my head
I can’t quit
Can’t quit
I wake up just to fight myself
Till I bleed into the mattress
Overtime in my own head
Full time job and I’m sick of it
[Verse 2]
Coffee shakes
Shadow signs the contract
Every thought a thumbtack
On the inside of my tongue
Checklist scars
Anxiety attendance sheet
Every breath another beat
On this broken factory drum
[Pre-Chorus]
Who’s the boss here?
Who keeps swinging when I drop?
If I called in dead
Would the beating ever stop?
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
Hands around my throat
But they’re mine
They’re mine
I’m the payroll
I’m the pain
I’m the dotted line
[whispered vocals]
“Get up
Get up
You’re not done yet”
[guitar solo]
[crescendo]
If I quit this shift
Do I lose myself
Or finally find
Someone else?
[Chorus]
