"Am I Floating In The Air" lyrics

"Am I Floating In The Air"

I don't mind the hours
I'm thankful for the work
Living on the line
Breaking down my mind

Burning out my arms
Staying on my feet
I don't mind the sun
I don't mind the heat

Guess it doesn't matter to pay it any mind
The more you move ahead, the more you fall behind
Falling into line, a worn and weary stare
Am I still alive, am I floating in the air

Double negative
Positively wrong
Is this all there is
Or is it all a con

Bargain for the night
Try to get to sleep
Wake up in a sweat
Get up and repeat

Guess it doesn't matter to have a fit and start
The more you move ahead, the more you fall apart
Falling into line, a worn and weary stare
Am I still alive, am I floating in the air
