[Verse 1] Long days, same badge Same chair, same stare Sun up, I’m there Sun down, still there Clock says what it wants I just nod and go Paper on my desk Stack up, then grow Cold tea, warm breath Cheap light, blank wall Clock hands move fast I move not at all [Pre-Chorus] Cut the day thin Split it in half Say it’s a lot I just laugh [Chorus] Long days, short nights Long days, short nights Keep it moving Keep it tight Long days, short nights Long days, short nights I’m still standing That’s my life [Verse 2] I miss calls by a mile Phone face down, dead Eat in the car One bite, then head Feet feel wired Mind feels flat Same route home Same worn path Stars show up late Then they cut and run Blink and they’re gone Before they’re done [Pre-Chorus] Cut the day thin Split it in half Say it’s a lot I just laugh [Chorus] Long days, short nights Long days, short nights Keep it moving Keep it tight Long days, short nights Long days, short nights I’m still standing That’s my life [Bridge] No grand speech No big scene Just a face in the glass And a half-lit screen I count the hours Then I lose the count If sleep comes quick Let it come around [Chorus] Long days, short nights Long days, short nights Keep it moving Keep it tight Long days, short nights Long days, short nights I’m still standing That’s my life
