Graveyard Shift

Lyrics
[Verse 1] Hometown, same town blues Same old walls closing in Oh, what a life a mess can be I'm sitting here thinking of you, won't you give Any thought to me? [Pre-Chorus] Well, time won't wait Better open the gate Get out and start what needs to be done It's winding down, there's much you missed Working on that graveyard shift [Chorus] Well, I'm not saying there's nothing wrong As the day comes along If what I see is true I could learn to believe Can't look away The powers that be Might take it all away Together we'll burn, together we'll burn either way [Verse 2] Some say a land of paradise Some say a land of pain Well, which side are you looking from? Some people have it all, and some have it all to gain [Bridge] Well a man in a tie'll bum your dime 'Fore he'll break his 20 dollar bill There's plenty of reasons in this world For movin' along or standing still [Chorus] But I'm not saying there's nothing wrong As the day comes along If what I see is true I could learn to believe Can't look away The powers that be Might take it all away Together we'll burn, together we'll burn either way [Verse 3] There's too much time spent looking for a reason It seems the simple ones beat the most truth Oh, what a life a mess can be I'm sitting here thinking of you, won't you give Give a thought to me [Pre-Chorus] Well, time won't wait Better open the gate Get out and start what needs to be done It's winding down, there's much you missed Working on that graveyard shift [Chorus] But I'm not saying there's nothing wrong As the day comes along If what I see is true I could learn to believe Can't look away The powers that be Might take it all away Together we'll burn, together we'll burn away
