Lyrics to Nightshift

Everybody knows

That it's just the way things go

Can't eliminate desire

That explains the sad expression



What it is I see over in the distance?

Something that I can't let go of

Its inside of mind

Its in front of my face

But needless to say I'm motionless



Take me home, take me home

I am your burden you have to bear



When I shut my eyes I don't need sentiment

Its something I could do without

But we all have to abide



Everybody knows

That it's just the way things go



What is it I hear through this deafening silence?

The fortune teller error is near

The worst is yet to come

And there's nothing here at all

That I or anybody else can do



Take me home, take me home

I am your burden you have to bear



When I shut my eyes

I don't need sentiment

Its something I could do without

But we all have to abide

By these terms



Working a frightful nightshift

Were just working a frightful nightshift



Everybody knows

That it's just the way things go

Can't eliminate desire

That explains the sad expression



Everybody knows

That it's just the way things go

Can't eliminate desire

That explains the sad expression



Ohh it's just the way things go

Can't eliminate desire

That explains the sad expression
