1
I've been working the graveyard shift
2
No one ever told me it would be like this
3
Sundown till the morning mist
4
Starting my day with a moonlight kiss
5
And I was born on a precipice
6
Between salvation and the great abyss
7
I don't think I can go on like this
8
Putting in time on the graveyard shift
9
I go to work at sundown
10
Pick-axe digging into common ground
11
Night falls but it makes no sound
12
Duty's calling from the underground
13
Now here it comes, it comes, the setting sun
14
Time to dig down and see what side you're on
15
Until the dawn, the dawn you're soldiering on
16
Every sundown you gotta be reborn
17
(Come away, come away)
18
Every sundown you gotta be reborn
19
(Come away, come away, come away, come away)
20
Come sit by me and see what I see
21
When I close my eyes at the edge of sleep
22
And we dream on the blade of a knife
23
Following the trail of the afterlife
24
Now here they come, the night commuters
25
The midnight hoard, the dawn refuters
26
They're all here to settle a score
27
With the phantom limbs and the ghosts of war
28
Here it comes, it comes, the setting sun
29
Time to dig down and see what side you're on
30
Until the dawn, the dawn soldiering on
31
Every sundown you gotta be reborn
32
(Come away, come away)
33
Every sundown you gotta be reborn
34
(Come away, come away, come away, come away)
35
I've been working the graveyard shift
36
Traded night for day
37
Now it's all I can do to stay awake
38
Eyes heavy as the moonlight drifts
39
Time to dig, time to dig
40
And bury my mistakes, bury my mistakes
41
I've been working the graveyard shift
42
No one ever told me it would be like this
43
Sundown to the morning mist
44
Starting my day with a moonlight kiss
45
And I was born on a precipice
46
Between salvation and the great abyss
47
I don't think it can go on like this
48
Putting in time in the graveyard
49
Now here it comes, it comes, the setting sun
50
Time to dig down and see what side you're on
51
Until the dawn, the dawn soldiering on
52
Every sundown you gotta be reborn
53
(Come away, come away)
54
Every sundown you gotta be reborn
55
(Come away, come away, come away, come away)
56
Now here it comes, it comes, the setting sun
57
Time to dig down and see what side you're on
58
Until the dawn, the dawn soldiering on
59
Every sundown you gotta be reborn
