lyrics

a couple of years, with my head in the sand
deflecting and riling from life's demands
and now I'm waiting for the door
for it to open under my feet.
my eyes are darkening, I'm losing my hair
I'm turning my back on the way i used to care
there are enemies i never knew i had
bureaucrats and agencies
all take their toll
willingly and blindly taking a turn
in the great scam to put me in my place
I'm stripped of passion, of worth and the right
to fend for myself
off the grid, out the race
stripped of resources and the best part of my day
and the right to die and opt out of their game
my eyes are darkening, I'm grinding my teeth
I'm looking ahead as I make my retreat
