Lyrics

Reflections in the morning mirror I don't know the person looking back at me.
But the more I stare the more I see resemblance of someone that I used to be.
So I put on a good face and a sunny disposition for the day.
I just can't seem to catch a break, I'm overworked and underpaid.

Chorus:
Punching in and checking out
Drifting off to faded sounds of somewhere I'd rather be.
Toe the line watching time
Aimlessly waiting for an end.

Maybe I'll draw some fire
Or maybe I might retire
Or maybe some things won't ever change.
I've been running 'round in circles all my life to wind up right where I began.

Reflections in the rearview mirror, I don't know this old town that I want to leave.
But the more I stare the more I see it's different from what it used to be.
So I throw it in drive and watch all the people slowly fade away.
Would I have just been another lifer stranded in this empty place.

Chorus:
Punching in and checking out
Drifting off to faded sounds of somewhere I'd rather be.
Toe the line watching time
Aimlessly waiting for an end.

Maybe I'll draw some fire
Or maybe I might retire
Or maybe some things won't ever change.
I've been running 'round in circles all my life to wind up right where I began.
