My life has become a routine.
I wake up
I go somewhere I really don't know if I want to be
I get told to do something
I get told to pay attention
I get told that these are the best years of my life
Yet somehow
It feels as though I am not even present
in any of what I am taking part in.
I'm there
But I'm not.
I get home
I am told to clean up my act
I am told that I am expected more of
I am told that if I want things to happen, I have to make it.
Don't they think I know?
Don't they thing I want that?
My life has become a routine
And I'm not sure if I will ever escape it.
