Dark Mornings Songtext
von Mike Dignam

This morning, I don′t wanna get out of bed
I'm ignoring my phone and the internet
The world spins ′round without anybody's help
Are we wasting days or keeping us safe?
This morning, I hide my face in a pillowcase
Exploring without finding another place
I found fortune without spending anything
I'm calling in sick ′cause I′m done with this

I don't wanna work ′til dead
Earning a false paycheck
I just wanna hold you close
I don't wanna pay the price
Money spends all your time
I just wanna hold you here


This morning, I′m tired of the same routine
It's so boring, forcing talk with the caffeine fiends
This suit and tie was never tailored to fit me right
I think we′re the only ones who see through it

I don't wanna work 'til dead
Earning a false paycheck
I just wanna hold you close
I don′t wanna pay the price
Money spends all your time
I just wanna hold you here

I won′t be a slave to the nine to five game
When all it ever does is steal the hours that should be ours
The empire's building without us fueling the machine
If having nothing gives me you, then I′ll stay broke
So we never have to fix this priceless love

I don't wanna work ′til dead
Earning a false paycheck
I just wanna hold you close
I don't wanna pay the price
Money spends all your time
I just wanna hold you here


′Cause you're worth more than I could ever afford to lose
