Frantic morning
Alarm clock warning
Building anxiety
Caffeine humbled
Highway rumble
Chasing society
Where is it leading?
What's the meaning?
Where am I supposed to be?
I run the race
Keep up the pace
But only other runner in the race is me
Sometimes you gotta slow down and smell
the dead skunk,
smeared across the road
Life is fragile
Loss never gradual
Is this what you want to be?
