She's in love
With a future cubicle
Not yet met
There's a life
Somewhere inside
She wants to forget
There's a man
Trying to break in
Failing so far
Hard to keep
sane without sleep
Counting scars
Chances come
So do people
Will luck intercede?
Probably not
Though a fine thought
We're driven to 'succeed'
Because money
conquers all
And minds kill hearts
And color fades
To somber shades
Love leaving in the dark
