lyrics

Blink the sleep out of your eyes
you always wake up before sunrise
there's another day closer to death
there's another day gone by

wash the grit from your face
you can't get rid of the taste
the cottonmouth and bile in your throat
the familiar feeling of waste

go to work, sit at your desk
you never get quite enough rest
this is the most you can hope for
inhabiting your body like a guest

Blink the sleep out of your eyes
you always wake up before sunrise
there's another day closer to death
there's another day gone by

wash the grit from your face
you can't get rid of the taste
the cottonmouth and bile in your throat
the familiar feeling you're doing this all again

go to work, pretend you're not there
it's never that hard to disappear
this is just like being a ghost
but you never quite escape the fear

Blink the sleep out of your eyes
you always wake up before sunrise
there's another day closer to death
there's another day gone by
