Graveyard Shift

[Verse 1]
I used to think that these words wouldn't go anywhere
My fever wouldn't start to break until they stopped and they stared
I keep on when you won't
'Cause I know what you don't, don't, don't, don't
I took the risk, I took the bid
I took the blame every time
I took to knock, knock, knocking down your door
I took to taking what's mine

[Chorus]
And everything they said was true
To keep you lost and cast away
I'd never sold your heart of gold
To keep you lost as days just fade away

[Verse 2]
I fell asleep at the helm of a runaway train
And laid myself at the feet of what I couldn't slay

[Chorus]
And everything they said was true
To keep you lost and cast away
I'd never sold your heart of gold
To keep you lost as days just fade away

[Partial Chorus]
And everything they said was true
To keep you lost and cast away
I'd never sold your heart of gold

[Bridge]
To keep you where they can't find
I need you more than I realized
I sip your glass and wave goodbye
I need you more, the rest alive

[Chorus]
And everything they said was true
To keep you lost and cast away
I'd never sold your heart of gold
To keep you lost as days just fade away

[Outro]
(And everything they said was true)
As days just fade away
(I'd never sold your heart of gold)
As days just fade away
