I’m not happy with the life I live

Floating on a driftwood easy reality

Life without happiness to give

Drink away the pain a 9 to 5 decrees

Pump it into me, the feelings

That I rely on to succeed

Grab for the top, weighing down the links

That hold together my life, it’s an easy read

Can I stay fulfilled while my soul is killed?

I want to go but I can’t leave all my goals

Send them all away, dreams I could build

If you like how I seem, find your own roles

My life isn’t a chess piece to be played

Neither is my career, but who gives a damn

About what I do other than myself anyway?

I could be my best, but content hasn’t stayed
