High at Work

from Bloodlines by Free the Cynics

lyrics

Head down, mind up, shirt-tail always untucked
Coffee breaks, got the shakes and I'm coming unstuck
Tryna hide from the eyes that have caught me before
Tryna climb down the side of the 40th floor
Find a room, lock the door, set the snoozer for ten
This old lock keeps me safe, lets me kinda pretend
Nothing's easy, nothing works, time slows down 'til it hurts
Only way I can deal
I'm high at work
High at work
I'm high at work
High at work
Death stares from my screen, send a surgeon or priest
So long, so far 'til I get me some peace
Conversations with myself, pickled brain starts to melt
Burning up, coming down, gotta fear for my health
Mirror shows me what I don't, what I don't wanna see
I'm a cacophony of scumbaggery
Nothing's easy, nothing works, time slows down 'til it hurts
Only way I can deal
I'm high at work
High at work
I'm high at work
High at work
I know what scene awaits
When I stumble into that place I hate
Those hands go by like days, the clock's laughing in my face
I know what scene awaits
When I stumble into that place I hate
Those hands go by like days, the clock's laughing in my face
I'm high at work
High at work
I'm high at work
High at work
I'm high at work
High at work
I'm high at work
High at work
