Grey nameless faceless suits A decaying ladder without roots Monochrome and corporate candy  loot Your elitest point is mute. Your point is mute! Fine dining line driving A self-sabotaging visionary Glass half empty Down your throat white wine is sliding D-U-why is my life such a mess? I dream of big success In nightmares you wear office dress This is a test Of your ******* Freeload patience! Just a purple plastic bobble head Nodding yes with self-deprecating complacency Lowely little Attempts of autonomy Grin wider with each shit-induced palpitation Foaming at the mouth   media-induced inebriation-- Cheap industrial imitation

Corporate Candy Hamsterwheel
Time is a thief, A thief of plans in our task notes, A thief of dreams from our bucket list, But time steals people too. How is it we pass strangers through the streets each day, Strangers who make it to the end of the day, And those we were the last to see with hands in their pockets, Strangers we don't get to see in their tinted cars, And all those friends who turn into strangers, Maybe we just should not take a thing for granted, Guess of all we knew, one, if we'd be seeing them for their last, We'd be a little kinder and sweeter than the freeloaders we've become.

Stranger for granted
