[hometext] => Sometimes even patience won't work when you reach some cosmological limitation.
[bodytext] => You stay in line, Wait your turn, And patiently watched others pass. You play by the rules, Follow the law, Hoping you won't be last. But for reasons unclear, By some force unknown, You are held fast in your place. Still, you wait in line, Wait your turn, While others pass you in haste. This is the story, Of most of your life, Something that won’t be defined. How can it be? You wait your turn, But never reach the front of the line? Years pass by slow, And nothing much changed, Still waiting in vain for your turn. But you’ve had enough, Yes, you’ll make a move, And do what the others have learned. You’ll push and shove, To the head of the line, For once in your life - you’ll be first! But the harder you push, The faster you shove, The louder the voices did curse. And it didn’t matter, You just can’t move! You stay in your place hard and fast. So, once again, You wait your turn, And patiently watch others pass.
