ABANDON SHIP

The merry go round is picking up speed as the fuel of survival is poured into the fire of life.
Wake up, shower if you have time, if none, arm and hammer your underarm, gel your hair, smell for the freshest clothes in the pile and off you go. Your mind was at school before you got there, you already heard the teacher say what he just said, about what you'll never use when you get out of here, but who cares, when all this is done you'll be taking a break for a few minutes. The break was gone before you got there because you mind took it to your next class you'll have in an hour so you sit for a second to watch the world go by. She's cute, maybe I should talk to her, but the clothes you have on warn you that she might not wanna talk so you wait for tomorrow when you'll be all dressed up! before tomorrow comes your mind already fell in love and had the best time with the girl you saw on the break your mind took ahead of you- now you're preparing to dump her... whats her name again? So class is over and you head on home completely exhausted to do anything else because your mind just did ten million things you didn't get to experience. So you sit in front of the TV, no facebook, maybe you have an email or a post from that friend you haven't texted in-oh, 45 seconds? So you flip the channel, check facebook myspace and feel hungry. But the kitchen is 10 feet away and thats too far! AHHHHHHH


so you sit in slow motion as the world goes by fast trying to catch up with your mind who's now back in bed calling you but you still have to do that homework. So you start the homework which take a few hours in human time and a few ages in mind land and then its time to sleep. But you're hungry so you make something finally but then while eating you get a text from so and so to come to so and so party. I really should sleep you think but what will that friend think about you if yo sleep? So you smell more clothes, but it doesn't matter cuz you're going to be in an atmosphere where the smoke and everything else hides the smell. But did I mention how awesome and good you look today?
so its midnight and you really
should leave now cuz
you're feeling a
little sleepy
but
that cute girl from
earlier just showed up
so maybe you should talk to her now.....
Her boyfriends at the party! Dammmmm
ABANDON SHIP ! ! !

Slow down you crazy child
You're so ambitious for a juvenile
But then if you're so smart tell me why
Are you still so afraid?
Where's the fire, what's the hurry about?
You better cool it off before you burn it out
You got so much to do and only
So many hours in a day

But you know that when the truth is told
That you can get what you want
Or you can just get old
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through
When will you realize...Vienna waits for you

Slow down you're doing fine
You can't be everything you want to be
Before your time
Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight (tonight)
Too bad but it's the life you lead
You're so ahead of yourself
That you forgot what you need
Though you can see when you're wrong
You know you can't always see when you're right(you're right)

You got your passion you got your pride
But don't you know that only fools are satisfied?
Dream on but don't imagine they'll all come true
When will you realize
Vienna waits for you

Slow down you crazy child
Take the phone off the hook and disappear for a while
It's alright you can afford to lose a day or two
When will you realize...
Vienna waits for you.
