I understand about indecision,
but I don't care if I get behind.
People living in competition,
all I want is to have my peace of mind.

I’ve been driving all night.
My hands wet on the wheel.
My baby’s calling saying I need you here.
And it’s a half past four and I’m shifting gears.

Last thing I remember,
I was running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
"Relax, " said the night man,
"We are programmed to receive.
You can check-out any time you like,
But you can never leave!"

And here I sit so patiently
Waiting to find out what price
You have to pay to get out of
Going through all these things twice

Thanks, Jimmag. Echoing Goose--safe travels.

Another that resonates with me:

I believe I've passed the age of consciousness and righteous rage
I found that just surviving was a noble fight
I once believed in causes too
I had my pointless point of view
And life went on no matter who was wrong or right

And there's always a place for the angry young man
With his fist in the air and his head in the sand
And he's never been able to learn from mistakes
So he can't understand why his heart always breaks
And his honor is pure and his courage is well
And he's fair and he's true and he's boring as hell
And he'll go to the grave as an angry old man

Billy Joel

Down in a hole and they've put all
The stones in their place
I've eaten the sun so my tongue
Has been burned of the taste

Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time.
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time is gone, the song is over,
Thought I'd something more to say.

 Time - Pink Floyd

Hey, Mr Tambourine Man, play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
Hey, Mr Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.
