I can’t enjoy the present
I’m busy waiting on the future
Working hard to produce
so I can be a consumer
And my consuming habits
have made me decadent
Keeping up with the trends
in hopes of being relevant
Waiting for the next fad
to infatuate our mind
Mindlessly ******* up
our money and our time
Timelessly circling in
repetitive motion
Going through the motions
and coming to the notion
That life's too short
to let it pass you by
But now time has passed
and it's soon time to die
And oh my
Give me something
to distract my mind
I liked the way things looked
before when I was blind
