I looked out the window and what did I see?

A distant world and a reflection of me.

 

I found two more dollars the other day,

but how will that help me find the words to say?

 

How much did I wish you'd be here?

More and more, and still more I fear.

 

My life is an existential bout.

When will I finally get out?
