about

You know....wake up, commute with droves of other hostages, arrive at compound, feel your heart sink, take a deep breath, clock in, scuffle, beaten down to your desk, squeeze into your "home away from home" cubicle, S-I-G-H, take a deep breath, sit, then disappear into the wonderment of your imagination.
Repeat until the ritual has served it's purpose OR you are dead!
"I've left that cubicle life....for now...."

lyrics

Today started out rough, already buried with so much
Should find a dark corner & lie down, hit the re-set

But I can't leave now, no-one's EVER escaped, I need a plan to set me in the right direction
I refuse to bow down to the cult of fluorescent light, recycled air and manipulation

Time's moving real s-l-o-w....the moss has grown up past my toes,
Should step outside in the fresh air, hit the reset

But I can't leave now, no-one's EVER escaped, I need a plan to set me in the right direction
I refuse to bow down to the cult of fluorescent light, recycled air and manipulation
I refuse to bow down
But I can't leave now
No-one's EVER escaped
They're not just gonna let me walk away

If I give up and slump down with all the ketchup packets sprinkled on the ground feel free to make me comfy& mop up the drool, rifle through my pockets, that's up to you.

I'm on a mini vacation, where I calmly assess the situation
The sky's so blue & there's a gentle breeze
I've left that cubicle life.....for now....
