Lyrics Deadline - Flash Forward

Deadline

The clock sets off the alarm in me
Seven a.m. is usually too early
Even the coffee I used to get
Won’t wake up my weary head
Pre-Chorus
I work for five days
Straight on three jobs
Too much to do I am gone
I’m too lost and you’ve won
I fucked up the deadline
Time after time after time
And stepped on a landmine
But I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine
On the outside I’m trying to pretend
To be everything I’m not
On the inside I can’t forget the fact
I’m bruised and battered
Broke and stuck
I hear their angry voices
Ringing in my head
I’m staring at the screen
Covered in cold sweat
And here’s my endless to-do-list
It tells me to do this
But then when I do it
I never get through it
Pre-Chorus:
Five days
Straight on three jobs
Too much to do I am gone
I fucked up the deadline
Time after time after time
And stepped on a landmine
But I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine
On the outside I’m trying to pretend
To be everything I’m not
On the inside I can’t forget the fact
I’m bruised and battered
Broke and stuck
(Broke and stuck
Broke and stuck
Broke and stuck
Broke and stuck
Broke and stuck
Broke and stuck)
I fucked up the deadline
Time after time after time
And stepped on a landmine
But I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine
On the outside I’m trying to pretend
To be everything I’m not
On the inside I can’t forget the fact
I’m bruised and battered
Broke and stuck
I’m bruised and battered
Broke and stuck
I’m bruised and battered
Broke and stuck
