mind crazy
body lazy
motivation...M.I.A

sometimes easy
more often tough
just getting through the day

torn between rest
and wanting to succeed
often unescapable
this unrelenting need

not sure where to go
just running in space
but always greeting the world
a smile upon my face

questions
never answers
at least none so clear to see

searching for a time lost
young, wild and free
a time when I remember
what it felt like to be me

when everything was simple
and the world was less a mess
and days were filled with play and dirt
but now just bills and stress

I wouldn't change my life now
it would come at much to high a cost
but still I find myself searching
for a time that I have lost
