Sixty-eight more minutes to go, an eternity stretches before me as I sit and wait. This place that welcomes me, yet condemns who I am; I have no choice but to sit and wait. I smile at people who hold no place in my heart this pretense that drags the minutes while I sit and wait. My mind wanders to places, I'd rather be than here, unbound by the obligations that make me sit and wait, and wait and wait and wait. ah, the second hand has reached its peak- sixty-seven more minutes to go.

Sixty-eight minutes
Sixty-eight more minutes to go, an eternity stretches before me as I sit and wait. This place that welcomes me, yet condemns who I am; I have no choice but to sit and wait. I smile at people who hold no place in my heart this pretense that drags the minutes while I sit and wait. My mind wanders to places, I'd rather be than here, unbound by the obligations that make me sit and wait, and wait and wait and wait. ah, the second hand has reached its peak- sixty-seven more minutes to go.
