Daysleeper lyrics

Receiving department, 3 a.m.

Staff cuts have socked up the overage

Directives are posted, no callbacks, complaints

Everywhere is calm

Hong Kong is present, Taipei awakes

All talk of circadian rhythm

I see today with a newsprint fray

My night is colored headache gray

Daysleeper

Daysleeper

Daysleeper

The bull and the bear are marking their territories

They're leading the blind with their international glories

I am the screen, the blinding light

I'm the screen, I work at night

I see today with a newsprint fray

My night is colored headache gray

Don't wake me with so much

Daysleeper

I cried the other night

I can't even say why

Fluorescent flat caffeine lights

It's furious balancing

I am the screen, the blinding light

I'm the screen, I work at night

I see today with a newsprint fray

My night is colored headache gray

Don't wake me with so much

The ocean machine is set to 9

I'll squeeze into heaven and valentine

My bed is pulling me, gravity

Daysleeper

Daysleeper

Daysleeper

Daysleeper

Daysleeper
