I awaken for my day job.
Laying in bed Between the sheets My clock on repeat Curling my feet across the bed Lying up, sighing out loud My painful eyes Nobody said how bright the day would be Now I see my fate Time to make some money Funny, how I was late relating to so many Out there working for every penny Tremendously hard Sometimes at dawn, sometimes so far Sometimes arriving with a good old sob As I drive out for my day job. I’m almost late for my day job. Beep beep Absolutely livid Beep beep Zero fucks given Cut me off will you? You knew I would relent Going so far as venting your apathy Shitty driving skills Where…have…you…been living? How do you fill in the time, By being such a malignant cancerous tumor? You’re the reason why bluetooths were invented You fucking shitty-ass guber I know it’s not me Pretty calm, benign Just planning out my 9 to 5 Ignoring the constant whines Coworkers glued eyes onto the time I find my spirit pine for greener pastures If only a rapture could take me away To save my youth from being robbed No longer pretending to be somebody I’m not I proceed working for my day job. I cope for my day job. Soul…surrendering Downtime, lobbying for passions Believing pursuit would be forbidden Believing in stone written lives Black, crass, tight tie-binds Fear-laced gross buzzing flies Hovering throughout our minds Such lies deny and blind Of a life outside of work Shining light lurks With dear friends arriving at every turn Tending to our wounds Sooner or later healing From our hearts Red glistening cells feeding Off our love our bodies most often needing So little of it left Such a theft temps those who long for A journey, a hidden meaning for living Perhaps once that giant leap is taken Consider faith forsaking An awakening Destiny calling out to be answered I wonder as I lay to sleep If I were to ever notice the call Luna’s gaze requires submission With each night I sleep through I realize with each passing day that I’ve now dropped into I have transformed my dreams as my true day job.
