Prison

Everyday you wake up

Hitting that familiar snooze button

You drink slightly bitter orange juice

Brushing your teeth in 30 seconds flat

Everyday you go to work

Your brain half dead from the lack of sleep

You get on the same damn bus

And get off at the same stop every time

Everywhere you go

There are people just like you

Rushing to reach a destination

Following this embedded structure

Yet we convince ourselves that we are free

That we have control
