Sorting Letters, Spilling Guinness

[Intro] Keys on the table Ink on my hands Barcode dreams still Buzz in my head [Verse 1] Last stamp slapped at 6:03 Fluorescent halo over me Queue snaked round like a cursed old reel "Next!" in my skull like a broken wheel Pockets full of crumpled forms Rain got drunk on my uniform Kicked that turnstile Missed my train Laughed so hard it shook the day [Chorus] I’m clocking out I’m coming home Feet on fire on cobblestone Spin that room Let the letters fall Sorting letters Spilling Guinness on the wall Ink-stained hands in the kitchen light Turn the chaos into Saturday night Every parcel Every broken code Explodes in a chorus when I get home [Verse 2] Got a love note addressed “Return” Coffee stain and a lipstick burn Dropped it once Read it twice Nearly sorted it under “life advice” Dog on the stair like a customs guard Sniffs my bag like I’m hiding stars You shout "You’re late!" Then pull me in Laughing as the kettle sings [Chorus] [Bridge] [low vocal register] Stack those boxes to the ceiling All my stress in cardboard towers [build] Kick them down Hear them scatter Like loose change Like wild flowers [half-time stomp Claps] We dance on unpaid bills and lists On fragile labels On "do not twist" [full-speed drop Shouted] Rip that tape Let it all explode Every barcode turns to a wild high note [Chorus]
