Triumph Over Forgotten Youth
by In Desperation· from Floods
I'm doing well ma'
Im doing well
what else do I need?
what more could you need?
restless, bloodshot eyes
what am I?
Got 15 in the bank, and my pockets are empty
I put that 40 hours right behind me
the weekend is coming on
but I'm too tired for another song
slave wages, instead of waging war
and you wonder what I'm depressed for
my name tag reads "dog tired"
I'm sleeping in today, so I can forget
I'm doing just fine, Im doing just fine
paying my debts, and waiting in line
I'm doing just fine, always just fine
always waiting
What more could you want than this
walking with clenched fists.
I have given all of my time away
forsaken today
the cold outside whispers, "come on son"
hop on that train and run
What am I?
the nameless face, forgotten by you.
