vaguely melancholic
as you go about your job
the music seeps into your skull
the shuffle and the throb
clouds of dust fill your holes
static is your friend
subtle as a knife
subtle as your end

vaguely melancholic
for another day
you hum a tune
it gets you through
the ghosts that drift your way

there must be more than this 
i know
i hope there's more than this
i know
please show me more than this 
i know
i beg for more than this
i know

vaguely melancholic
encircled by the fog
blinded by headlights

vaguely melancholic
as i sleepwalk all day
hum a tune
it gets me through
the hustle and decay

there must be more than this i know
i hope for more than this i know
please show me more than this i know
i beg for more than this i know

vaguely melancholic
for another day
you hum a tune
it gets you through
the ghosts that drift your way

vaguely melancholic
as you go about your job
the music seeps into your skull
the shuffle and the throb
