Rush

A permanent countdown
In a world that moves too fast
Why are we in a hurry?
When nothing ever lasts
A cycle of constant circles
Moving us through this world
It takes away our forever
And steals away our youth
Celebrate the ordinary
Revel in the mundane
Each moment of every day
Contributes in some way
Why are you in such a hurry?
I really want to know
Something you are not telling me
Some place you have to go
To see the sweet hereafter
Visit the promised land
Your demise on earth is near
Enjoy it while you can
