I Work Nights And You Work Days

(album: Cannibals With Cutlery - 2013)

This is all the life we choose
I go home the sun is due
The streets they are so deathly quiet
Crimson breaks and out of sight
Red rings 'roud the city block
And red rings 'round my eyes
The devil greases up your hand
Angels make you break your back

I go, I go home
Just to see your face
To see that it's not changed
And though you are asleep
It seems so natural
To kiss you as the sun comes up

I work nights and you work days
We glimpse each other out of phase
Oh but such is life now
And oh such is life now
And it seems like we're different people
To when I would sing and you were studying
And we both coul've made it
And we both could've been something
Every day a new party
Every day dressed in gold

I go, I go home
Just to see your face
To see that it's not changed
And though you are asleep
It seems so natural
To kiss you as the sun comes up

I go, I go home
Just to see your face
To see that it's not changed
And though you are asleep
It seems so natural
To kiss you as the sun comes up

I go, I go home
Just to see your face
To see that it's not changed
And though you are asleep
It seems so natural
To kiss you as the sun comes up
