Within these constant streams of thought
I still manage to paddle my boat which is surely
a feat of endurance worthy of Hyadal.

don't know who he is?
Google him,
I'm not here as a public information service
I am just trying to survive.

There's always an agenda
reasons behind the smile
they always want you to shift up a gear
and go the extra mile
well,
I've gone the extra mile and back
a waste of flamin' time

and
time consumes us with its flames
licks our faces
calls our names
ticks us off in the here and now
moves us on to the there and then
where the clock strikes done
when we will be.
