Night Shift |
| Tattered ghost ships sailin' outta sight |
| I’ve been writing about them most of my life |
| Couldn’t find it in my heart of hearts to lie about the fight |
| So I set it all on fire and disappeared into the night |
| Now you were looking for some flaws? |
| Let me hit you with that list |
| Some of y’all were talkin' at me like I didn’t own my shit |
| Bloody murder was that script |
| Now I’m walking on a fine line carefully |
| I don’t need anyone takin' care of me |
| You seem a little shocked |
| Is it 'cause you smell the kerosene? |
| 'Cause I made a profit out of using my self-destruction as therapy |
| I own that |
| I put it out in front and let the cold pass |
| But you still try to chip away my highs like you use a low pass, so fuck it |
| This is not the first time I’ve had to cope |
| Or had to measure out the distance of the gallows rope |
| I tasted every single toxin in that cloud of smoke |
| Surroundin' you allowin' you to pretend that you know, but you don’t |
| If-if you were pushin' through that night shift |
| Runnin' all day |
| Workin' all night |
| Money tight |
| Not a dollar to spend, would you do it again? |
| (I would, I would) |
| Because I was pushin' through that night shift |
| Runnin' all day |
| Workin' all night |
| Over-time |
| For a dollar to spend, just to do it again! |
| (I would, I would, I would) |
| Deep waters conceal the darkest of truths |
| I’ve been around it since a youth |
| And even though I’ll never truly understand it or break it down to the roots |
| I always navigate it honest and true |
| Oh you were lookin' for some dirt |
| Let me give your ass a spade look |
| Underminin' me has become as popular as Facebook |
| I turn another page |
| You keep givin' me the same look |
| Actin' like I shouldn’t catch my compliments and pain with the same hook |
| I’m climbin' |
| I don’t need to put it all behind me |
| The past is underneath me |
| I ditch the anchor and fly free |
| The simple flash of a moment tryin' to blind me is somethin' you’ll learn is |
| impossible to define me, so fuck it |
| This is not my first song and dance |
| This is not my resignation letter to the fans |
| This is something that you’ll probably never understand |
| Until you learn to face your battles like a man, but you can’t |
| If-if you were pushin' through that night shift |
| Runnin' all day |
| Workin' all night |
| Money tight |
| Not a dollar to spend, would you do it again? |
| (I would, I would) |
| Because I was pushin' through that night shift |
| Runnin' all day |
| Workin' all night |
| Over-time |
| For a dollar to spend, just to do it again! |
| (I would, I would, I would) |
