Lyrics

Verse

The neon hum is getting loud
A heavy weight, a graying cloud
The coffee's cold, the air is stale
Another day within this jail
I've counted every single crack
In the ceiling, looking back

Pre-Chorus

The boss is calling out my name
But I am finished with this game
The keys are sitting on the desk
My spirit's finally unrest

Chorus

One foot out and one foot gone
I'm dancing to a brand new song
The tie is loose, the bags are packed
I'm never, ever coming back
No, I'm never coming back

Verse

The spreadsheet rows are blurring out
I've forgotten what it's all about
The fluorescent light, a steady sting
I'm ready for a different thing
The swivel chair, the lonely phone
I'm leaving this all on my own

Pre-Chorus

The boss is calling out my name
But I am finished with this game
The keys are sitting on the desk
My spirit's finally unrest

Chorus

One foot out and one foot gone
I'm dancing to a brand new song
The tie is loose, the bags are packed
I'm never, ever coming back
No, I'm never coming back

Bridge

Walking down the street so free
The pavement's singing back to me
No more memos, no more dread
Just the open road ahead

Chorus

One foot out and one foot gone
I'm dancing to a brand new song
The tie is loose, the bags are packed
I'm never, ever coming back
No, I'm never coming back

Outro

Clocking out
Walking out
Yeah, I'm out
I'm gone
