Claustrophobia

Claustrophobia 8/22/07

Every life is the same
Every event
In every way
Every person you meet
The player’s on repeat
Stuck in the back seat
Strapped in
The view’s the same anyway
The driver’s drive in circles
Passing those same street signs
Those same landmarks
On the same road
Until you can see what’s coming
Until you know
You can’t leave
Stay one step ahead
Get off the road
Know before even you know
Or stay
In claustrophobia
A consistent plight
All you know is day and night
You see the light
Get out now
Fight
Don’t stay
Sacrifice
It’s yours
It’s worth it
