Breakroom Light, Seven A.M. Soup

by Iron Marrow

“A woman takes her badge off at seven and hums a tune. A groove for the end of a night shift.”

Lyrics

The night is done, the shift is through
She takes her badge off, hums a tune
A little room with a humming light
A bowl of soup at the end of the night

Her feet are sore, her eyes are red
She stirs the pot and shakes her head
The sun is peeking through the blinds
And all the hard things stay behind

Warm soup, warm light
She earned it, she earned the night
Sit down, sit down, let it be
A little peace for the one who cares for me
Warm soup, warm light
Everything is going to be alright

A friend walks in with a cup of tea
Says rest awhile, sit next to me
We do not talk, we do not need
Some quiet is all the heart can read

Warm soup, warm light
She earned it, she earned the night
Sit down, sit down, let it be
A little peace for the one who cares for me
Warm soup, warm light
Everything is going to be alright

Slow, slow
Let the morning come
Slow, slow
The long night's done

Warm soup, warm light
She earned it, she earned the night
Sit down, sit down, let it be
A little peace for the one who cares for me
Warm soup, warm light
Everything is going to be alright

Warm soup, warm light
Alright
