Don’t call me in, I won’t come back, even if there’s dollar signs
I’m too tired of acting nice, when inside I’m on fire
Graveyard gig, sleep when I’m dead, candle burned at both ends
Killing deadlines, reading the signs that say you should work instead
It’s a bitch
Waiting for a shift
to end
So I stay in bed and hide my head, & everyone’s going out
Watch the screen tell me everything I think that you’re about
Start to think I want a drink and I don’t know if that’s good
Tell myself I’m doin well, and hell I probably should
It’s a bitch
Waiting for a shift, waiting for a shift
To end
Wait for time to pass so fast, every day is long
Wait for time to pass so fast, every day is long
Every day is long
Every day is long
Don’t call me in, I won’t come back
Even if there’s dollar signs.

The record is up on Apple Music, Spotify, Bandcamp. We’d love for you to check it out. It’s something we’ve been working on for such a long time, it’s a huge relief to release it into the world. We are playing songs from it tonight at the 5 Spot and have a killer band. We are going to record it too.

I love this! Originally I read the lyrics as a poem, but the music adds a whole new dimension. Keep it up
Nice
