Plans and time. Earning and spending.
Alone and isolated. Friends and couples and fear and fun and lonely.
Sad and happy and nothing at all.
Waiting and wondering. Thinking and brooding. Understanding.
Having and wanting and needing and getting and satisfaction.
But the day slips past and where have I gone and what have I done?
I look in the mirror and I see a man I do not know.
I look in my soul and I cannot find the feeling.
