Future of misery, party of Mine

Stuck in first gear Somehow numb, I inch forward Reminiscence memories past These days, my only solace Forcibly woken to a reality I fear Hold on. Catch my breath. I gasp. How did I get here? Short of breath, Anxiety’s lurking He'll find me soon enough Overdue karma, unwillingly welcomed What I’ve earned can no longer be feared Consequence on my heels, He’s winning my race Forced to face my own demons Inevitably my loss, my disgrace Take a seat, enjoy the ride Future of misery, party of mine.
