lyrics

what the fuck am i still doing here, watching my life slowly disappear? this was sposed to be something temporary, if i'm not careful it'll be a career. and i'll wake up one day and realise i'm 60 and my whole stupid life comprised just early starts and commutes, fighting arseholes in suits to get to a job i fucking despised
this stupid meaningless bullshit routine makes me want to put my foot through my computer screen

i don't want to spend my life in this lifeless office regretting chances i wasted and opportunities i missed. i know i'm here through lack of motivation, laziness, and procrastination but i guess i always thought i would amount to more than this

so now clockwatching's a main pursuit of mine, and so's staring out the window so i'm busy staring outside watching minutes crawl by, professionally wasting time
what's the point when all day you spend your time just crossing off the minutes left til the weekend, when you're all set to get shit done but you just sleep and drink and then you blink and it's monday again?

i don't want to spend my life in this lifeless office regretting chances i wasted and opportunities i missed. i know i'm here through lack of motivation, laziness, and procrastination but i guess i always thought i would amount to more than this

this isn't how my life was meant to go. i planned to change the world, not be an average joe. i'm not cut out for mediocrity, i'd rather fail spectacularly aiming high than succeed keeping my sights aimed low. must find something more than slacker to put on the résumé, and a job that doesn't wear my will to live away, get to work drafting my resignation and sorting out those job applications. tomorrow though cos i'm too wiped out from work today.
