Current keeps rising lyrics
Verse
Badge scan at midnight, the turnstile hums
Breaker room heartbeat, counting what it becomes
Clock says double time, my hours don't add
City sleeps easy off the shift that I had
Fluorescent halo where the ceiling should be
Wired for the current, unplugged from me
Timecard punched red, I'm the ghost on the line
Keeping the grid lit while my own light declines
Pre-Chorus
Who clocks the clock keeper
Who counts what's owed
Streetlights on my shoulders
Down every road
Chorus
Grid without sleep
Grid without sleep
Current keeps rising
Debt I can't keep
Grid without sleep
Grid without sleep
City stays lit
While I sink deep
Verse
Forklift echoes down a concrete hall
Twelve years counted, still ain't cleared it all
Overtime promised like a rain that won't fall
Numbers on the paycheck, shadow on the wall
My son sleeps easy under sodium glow
Never knows the hours that make the current flow
Every breaker I flip is a year I don't get
Powering dreams that I ain't cashed in yet
Pre-Chorus
Who clocks the clock keeper
Who counts what's not shown
Streetlights keep burning
On streets I don't own
Chorus
Grid without sleep
Grid without sleep
Current keeps rising
Debt I can't keep
Grid without sleep
Grid without sleep
City stays lit
While I sink deep
Bridge
No badge, no line, just the hum in my chest
Every current I feed keeps somebody else's rest
I built the light that never finds my door
Still I flip the switch, still I count the score
Chorus
Grid without sleep
Grid without sleep
Current keeps rising
Debt I can't keep
Grid without sleep
Grid without sleep
City stays lit
While I sink deep
