Late Clock Lies
(hummm, hum-hum-hummm)
The desk lamp glows on a screen that never sleeps
Three past midnight, but the chat channel keeps
Whispering updates from a desk down the hall
While a mismatched bracelet shadows the wall (ahhhh)
Time clock is lying,
ticking on the wall
Another name's initial waiting for the fall
Under the warm late summer sky
We let the hours pass us by!
(oh yeah)
We are the ones still awake inside
A heavy skip at three seconds in
Someone else's song is about to begin Left-behind silver,
a charm on my wrist
A letter not mine in the morning mist (hmm-mmm)
Under the warm late summer sky
We let the hours pass us by!
(oh yeah)
We are the ones still awake inside
Still online... (hummm)
