Day after Day


Day after day I sit in this chair,

Day after day I breathe the stale air,

expecting to learn something,

anything clear.

So why am I sitting here,

Day after day,

watching the clock tick tock away,

hearing only the screams of our dying brain cells,

hearing only our dreams run away from ourselves.
