Skip the Formalities Lyrics – beat_shobon

Ding
The elevator stops
Stuck into the cafe where we allowed to get caught
Hey
Is that coffee I smell?
The distraction from the thought to rebel
We attend the call
Kneeling to the spinning hands we’ve given control
Wait
(Hello. Please leave a message at the tone.)

Here there’s no games to play

And yet you’re always playing
Reverie stuck in overtime
I feel like it’s the first time
I’ve changed the place I’m in
To be consulting you

It’s pushing for a raise
Or is our pushing rising?
Our daily dose of morning shine
Discovering what’s color
In rooms stuck in gray
Are my emotions coming through?

All day caught up in different tasks
Just can’t let this change pass
Would some extra time be too much to ask?

Let’s skip the formalities
And take the lead for once
Or do these so called “hierarchies”
Can beat our need to dance?
I hear insecurities
Well, let’s put them on hold
I’ve waited for too long
For my line to be called

Let’s be unprofessional
And let’s stop telling lies
Are my true feelings well-disguised
By wearing suits and ties?
There are things that can’t be said
Inside the subject line
Do I make myself clear?
How can I make you mine?

It’s worth discussing and
It’s worth holding a meeting
It’s worth holding your hand
Whoa, wait
The corporate ladder is too tall
A threat how easy it is to fall
FOR YOU

WAKE UP

Does making all the rules
Make it much worse to break them?
Running from whispers through the hall
If this is right or this is wrong
I can’t hang up the phone
Can’t work through this agenda all alone

Asking what happened to my nights
Personal paradise
How come that my dreams now show from nine to five?

Learned to put my strongest front
To be the one in charge
Should I teach you the guidelines on
The way into my heart
There’s no need for emails
There’s no need for schedule sheets
As long as there’s no stares
We’ll find our time to meet

That’s enough of typing
Can’t you see that you’re my type?
What other situation makes me love to work at night?
There are things that can’t be said inside the subject line
Do I make myself clear?
How can I make you mine?

Let’s skip the formalities
And take the lead for once
Or do these so called “hierarchies”
Can beat our need to dance?
I hear insecurities
Well, let’s put them on hold
I’ve waited for too long
For my line to be called

Let’s be unprofessional
And let’s stop telling lies
Are my true feelings well-disguised
By wearing suits and ties?
There are things that can’t be said
Inside the subject line
Do I make myself clear?
How can I make you mine?
