Lyrics

Temp Worker

Another sad love song
Another sad love song memory

I never know what you think
But I'm sure I can guess from your face darling
Four white walls, closing in
Making my head spin

Another sad love song
Another sad love song memory
Another sad love song
Another sad love song memory

Happily never after
Brain scattered
Can't put it back now
I picked up a broken mirror
And I can't put it back down
Four white walls, closing in
You were my best friend
Another sad love song
Another sad love song memory
Another sad love song
Another sad love song memory

And now I got the devil's wings
So let me fly away
You'll never see me again
That's what they all say
That's what they all say

Another sad love song memory
Another sad love song
Another sad love song memory
Another sad love song
Another sad love song memory

Open up and let the light pour in
Push through the faceless crowd
I need to see you again
And again and again

Another sad love song memory
Another sad love song
Another sad love song memory
