Panic
You’re halfway home when a thought enters your head
And all of a sudden you’re filled with dread
And you know in your heart that the damage is done
But you have no choice so you RUN
RUN RUN
Running faster than you have in your life
If the thought is true than more than your project is in strife
So you sprint through the hallways, sprint up the stairs
You’re leaping through doorways, knocking over chairs
And when you think your heart can’t take anymore
The moment of truth, you open the door,
A sigh of relief, the truth is clear cut
The panic was worthless, the minus 80 is shut.
