Break Free

stuck inside inside this shell
i long to break out
away from all this mundane life
i wish to break free of this boring routine
materialistic ambitions galore
swimming against a tide (that we call life)
fast at times
slow at another
stuck once in a while
i lay buried under a sea of desires
meaningless most of the time
necessity once in a while
clueless for the rest
i wait
like a shadow in the night
like a fly around a light
like a rebel wanting to break free
i wait
i am tired
trying to make sense of this humdrum existence
life is now a high speed car race
drive fast to stay with the pack
drive slow and be left behind
its all happening too fast
living in a circus
walking a tightrope everyday
smiling to one and all
juggling everything that is thrown
another day, another act
another mindless journey
putting on a brave face
wearing a new make-up each time
On and on, does anybody know what we are living for?
Outside the day has dawned
But inside in the dark
i want to break free…
