I find myself elated
At such dark and dull a prospect
This life is going places
At what cost, I can't be bothered
I find myself excited
At the buzz of my alarm
Surprises are unwelcome
I'll stick to my routine
I find myself fast sleeping
At the wheel of my own life
I veer across the freeway
While I'm still safely dreaming
I've still got the fire
I've still got the fight
I'm working my way up there
One desk job at a time
At such dark and dull a prospect
This life is going places
At what cost, I can't be bothered
I find myself excited
At the buzz of my alarm
Surprises are unwelcome
I'll stick to my routine
I find myself fast sleeping
At the wheel of my own life
I veer across the freeway
While I'm still safely dreaming
I've still got the fire
I've still got the fight
I'm working my way up there
One desk job at a time

Although I cannot say the title of this piece is fitting for me, the actual piece itself speaks to me. I find myself thinking the same way and feeling as though I'm in this very position. This piece really puts into perspective the things we overlook from time to time.
