So Much Longer

Seems like every day
I’m finding less reasons to stay
I don’t mean here, somewhere with you,
elsewhere, around, or above ground
but something else still keeps me here.
Maybe it’s fear, or stubborn courage;
maybe deep down, I’m just lazy.
Wouldn’t that be almost crazy?
Doesn’t matter either way.
Look, just now passed another day,
and the world just kept on spinning,
losers losing, winners winning.

Not a blade of grass out of place.
Almost like it was a movie, huh?
