Daysleeper

R.E.M.

    Continues after the ad

    Receiving department
    3 AM
    Staff cuts have socked up the overage
    Directives are posted
    No callbacks, complaints
    Everywhere is calm

    Hong Kong is present
    Taipei awakes
    All talk of circadian rhythm

    I see today with a newsprint fray
    My night is colored headache grey
    Daysleeper

    The bull and the bear are marking their territories
    They're leading the blind with their international glories

    Continues after the ad

    I'm the screen
    The blinding light
    I'm the screen
    I work at night

    I see today with a newsprint fray
    My night is colored headache grey
    Don't wake me with so much
    Daysleeper

    I cried the other night
    I can't even say why
    Fluorescent flat caffeine lights
    Its furious balancing

    I'm the screen
    The blinding light
    I'm the screen
    I work at night

    I see today with a newsprint fray
    My night is colored headache grey
    Don't wake me with so much
    The ocean machine is set to nine
    I'll squeeze into heaven and valentine
    My bed is pulling me
    Gravity
    Daysleeper
    Daysleeper
    Daysleeper
    Daysleeper
    Daysleeper
