Catalyst

I awoke with a start today determination set

Filled with expectation

Sacks of soul to collect

But I am so fearful of the future

Ignorant of the present

And wary of the past

And through the door I shuffle quietly down the hall

Identical corridors and artificial lights

The man in the box born to set my world to rights

Effortlessly soon ignites the screaming in my head

Reborn the catalyst will blow my joy away

Bet you thought that I'd have so much more to say

Come save me now

But I am so fearful of the future

Ignorant of the present

And wary of the past

And I don't want to

But it's now a case of have to

I piss away for pittance

And suck up to the man

No wonder I'm dying when I awoke with a start today
