These Summer Days Get To Me

These Summer days get to me,
I blink and they're gone,
I've used up all the hours,
and nothing I've done.

Just smoked more cigarettes,
stared at the screen,
my eyes go all funny,
they start to scream.

Break out
of this 'nicotine stained cage'
I think in a rage
but I don't want to.

I need motivating,
a peak to climb,
just something to aim for,
to slow down my time.

These Summer days get to me,
I think I'm not the only one
who sits inside and watches people
needing a job to be done.
