Waking up everyday at a decent time possibly on little to no sleep Rushing to eat something that’s good for your body and easy on the wallet Attempting to make it to school or work on time Trying to smile and keep a social composure the entire day Deciding to skip lunch because you want that extra money Taking those extra hours of overtime when your coworker doesn’t come to work knowing you have to get by somehow Coming home to eat alone Microwaving the left overs in the fridge because you’re too tired too cook something on the stove Watching Netflix until your eyes burn yet you can’t seem to fall asleep And everyday you wonder Is this what we are supposed to be Lifeless obeying mindless zombies Where did we come from Why Why are we here Everyday thinking to yourself if only you could find a way to change the world It’s that endless cycle That everyday motion And the constant wonder and confusion Wondering whom you’re supposed to truly be in this word Goodnight universe

The endless motion of commotion
Waking up everyday at a decent time possibly on little to no sleep Rushing to eat something that’s good for your body and easy on the wallet Attempting to make it to school or work on time Trying to smile and keep a social composure the entire day Deciding to skip lunch because you want that extra money Taking those extra hours of overtime when your coworker doesn’t come to work knowing you have to get by somehow Coming home to eat alone Microwaving the left overs in the fridge because you’re too tired too cook something on the stove Watching Netflix until your eyes burn yet you can’t seem to fall asleep And everyday you wonder Is this what we are supposed to be Lifeless obeying mindless zombies Where did we come from Why Why are we here Everyday thinking to yourself if only you could find a way to change the world It’s that endless cycle That everyday motion And the constant wonder and confusion Wondering whom you’re supposed to truly be in this word Goodnight universe
