Rain drops scatter through the morning air

Peppering my hair strewn about by wind

The silver paint on my car melts into the fog

Designating grey as the color of the day

I breathe in, I breathe out and unlock the door

Obligations on my mind, these everyday life chores

Pile on incessantly, it seems there’s no end

Contemplate my dismal fate while I drive to work again, again, again

I wish I had just stayed in bed

Insulated from the things I dread

Getting sleep that I don't need

Neglecting my responsibilities

Cruising faster than I probably should

Couple minutes late, I blame the traffic moving slow

Even though I know I hit the snooze a couple times

External factors are a bastard and a great scapegoat

Tedium, delirium, they go hand in hand

Every day it's all the same, repetitive and bland

I feel binded, blinded by the walls of routine

This valley is where I am damned to be, I’m stuck in between things I can’t see

How the hell do I escape

Going through these escapades

Wondering why all the time

I guess it’s just because
