I'm terrified
Of becoming
Another blank face
Staring in
The face of my wristwatch
Watching time slip away
Hands spinning, dragging me with them
False progression, marked by this mechanical ticking
Dragging me with them
Mechanical ticking
As I lethargically drag my feet across this planets surface
I feel the gears rattle inside of my head, they never slow down
This device will not govern how I live my life, I'm trying I swear
To take in every brief moment that I am here, before I am gone
