about

"Nightwork" is the debut single from my upcoming EP, NOISE, out July 7th.

lyrics

V1:
You say you love me, but it never feels like the truth
Put no one else above me, so really what's the use?
You're always playing
I can't figure it out, it's all the same
Messing with my head again, you'd much rather play pretend
Can't figure it out, make it go away

Chorus:
When I go out each time it always hurts
Because you never think to put me first
And I would like to somehow know my worth
Cause I've been putting in that nightwork
When I go out each time, oh it's the worst
You play your games but I, I never learn
And I would like to sometimes know my worth
Cause I, I've been putting in that nightwork

V2:
I dance in circles, to the march of your beat
But by the end of the night, it feels incomplete
Why don't we change the rules? 'Cause you're always wanting'ou8 more
I know you'll never be satisfied
One foot out the door

Chorus

Outro:
You say it's true that the things I do
They always shine, under spotlights
If it's all a lie, then why even try?
The rules, they don't apply, there's nothing for me
If it's all a game, then why even play?
The rules, they always change, there's nothing for me
I can't figure it out, it's all the same
Messing my head again, you'd much rather play pretend
Can't figure it out, make it go away

Chorus
