Workload

The kids went back to school today,
And i went back to work.
Drank the weekend away again
Anything to numb the hurt.
5 days to wish my life away
Every second a watched clock,
Then 2 days to destroy my brain
And forget what I wished for anyway.

I false started the human race,
Ran from what I couldn't face.

Didn't do much just lost touch,
Method acting career,
Grew into this year by year,
What was: forgot.
Weakened by the weekend
Enfeebled by the weak,
Bank on payrolls treadmill
Taught all there is to teach.
