The Kafkaesque Journey: Lost in Routine

Lyrics

I get up at eight, drink the pills

I wake up at eight, take medication

And then I go to uni

Then I proceed to attend university

I'm just moony and little sad

Feeling somewhat dreamy and a bit melancholic


I wake up at nine, search for thrills

I wake up at nine, seeking excitement

And then I go to my work

Then I head to my job

It's all clockwork yet so bland

Everything is routine but lacks excitement


I forget

Memory lapse or neglect

Cause I

Because I

Can't even feel like I did

Can't even feel as I used to

And I can't even seem to cry

Unable to cry

And I can't even think

Difficulty in thought process

I know that

Aware that

I'll be

I will become

Big scary bug lying in bed

A frightening insect lying in bed

And I won't be able to fly

Unable to fly

I'll leave everything wrecked

Leaving everything in chaos


I don't know if I'll see some clear

Uncertain about finding clarity

God that'll make me feel good in me

Hoping for a divine force to bring joy within

Bright sparks in me are all dead

The creative aspects within me have faded away


I don't know how to hide my fears

Struggling to conceal my anxieties

End up writing songs that keep me

Resulting in writing songs as an outlet

Focused on things I'll never end

Channeling focus towards perpetual uncertainties


I forget

Memory lapse or neglect repeats

Cause I

Because I

Can't even feel like I did

Can't even feel as I used to

And I can't even seem to cry

Unable to shed tears

And I can't even think

Difficulty in thought process persists

I know that

Aware that

I'll be

I will become

Big scary bug lying in bed

A frightening insect lying in bed

And I won't be able to fly

Unable to soar

I'll leave everything wrecked

Leaving everything in disarray
