Six Years

Six years of the night shift
And the well runs dry
Getting tattoos of family
Just as soon as they die

And I went union against my will
When I realized I had trapped myself

I've been looking at tail lights
Every day of my life
Standing in place
While you march all night

Well I wasn't done with the fall
And you told me I should move on
Yeah I should know my rights from wrong
Well who are you to decide

And in my dreams I see time on a screen
But in my head it's just some clock that I misread
And I know that I should do more
And I'm sure I've been here before

And when I freak out that can't be the real me
But when I scream out I can't tell what I mean
And we go at a different pace
And I'd grow but I'm afraid of change

And in my dreams I see life pause for me
But in my head it's just some fear I misdirect
But I know that what I feel is mine
And I can't stop the guilt this time
