Panting

Sound of emails popping
Mountains of papers
Deadlines creepin' on me

Frustrated
Silently cursing 
Fire fighting to clear 'em all

Hold back my tears 
Withstand my anger
Just focus

On the corner
Hoping the clock click
Stop work
Time to go home now

Sighs 
Rushing to go home

Blocking out the noise
Wandering 
The day 
Doing things
I love 

Joy 
Everyday I wake up
Excitement in my soul
Adrenaline rush

Smiling with ease
On top of the world
Being who I am
What I am capable of

Back to reality
Desperate escape
No where to run

Cannot do anything
But being dragged 
Into someone's dream

Time to do something
Before getting submerged
Hope I still have chance
To turn things around
