Silence amid Chaos

Chaos unfolds across the city

As I ponder deep into my thoughts

Lights go red, and wheels reach a stop

Eyes flicker down, then upward they go

As I lay back in my seat still and froze

 

I twitched my buckle and it came undone

Cranked up the radio and tuned in to some fun

Let out a Sigh as I started to jam

O this world, what a sham

 

With every second I turn hollow,

The time just feels right, to light a Marlboro

With every soothing breath I take,

My cabin turns to a misty lake

 

Eventually, I lost the ability to give a f**k,

No more meeting dues, no more chasing bucks

Just the glow of the dash and the city's hum,

Caught in this quietude, where I've become, none..
