you ever get that feeling like your drowning? like your in the middle of the ocean... and a cruise liner goes sailing past. they dont stop, they dont do anything, other than keep hauling ass. and the people on the top deck, with their cigars and martinis just point and laugh at you. and you pray to god that a piece of 2x4, or an igloo cooler or somethign comes by.... just so you can hang on a little longer.... but nothing ever comes near... and it ends up youve been treading water for days, and you havnt gotten anywhere. no one to help you, youre out there solo. the only thing you accomplish is the slight postponing of your utter and inevitable demise. you ever get that feeling? and its like "whats the point?" so you just stop swimming, and start sinking. your lungs start burning, inside your ears are on fire.... and you cant help it, you just cant resist. you swim back up to air. and for what? not a damn thing. nothing to grab on to. no one else around for miles. you see, our drive to survive, to succede is pretty intese. even when faced with impossibilities we dont give up. you think about it for a while... you slack off for a bit... but you just cant take it. the will to make it is just too much. you ever get that feeling?
