Routine

In the morning it starts, Get dressed in the dark, Head out to the car
Did you get enough rest, Could you settle for less, & not fall apart?
You feel like a slave, You work in a cave, All for some pay
You never resist, You signed up for this, The hand has been played...

~~~

Routine through another day, Routine has a slower sway
The vibrations are real, I can feel, There must be a better way!
Routine through another day...
Routine is like jail... I want to post bail...
...Routine is a jail... And I wanna post bail.

~~~

When the day becomes night, You still don't feel right, You don't understand
You do what you can, A robotic man, But at your own hand
No matter what day, It's always the same, You're stuck in a sway
At the end of the week, That's when you seek, Your better way...

~~~

Routine through another day, Routine has a slower sway
It must mean it's real, 'Cause I can feel, There is a better way!
Routine through another day...
Routine is like jail... I want to post bail...
...Routine is a jail...And I wanna post bail.

I can feel the sadness in your words... I really like it and it is very well written...

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
