Lyrics: Routines

I want something more than this
I’m just a disillusioned youth
I go to work and its all the same
Just like being back in school again

Routines, Routines, I gotta get - out of these
Routines, Routings, I gotta get out of them now

When you feel your insurrection
Time to change your direction
But something new may turn to be the same
Back in another routine again

Routines, Routines, I gotta get - out of these
Routines, Routings, I gotta get out of them now

Someday I’ll find a way to break myself – of these social bonds
History repeats itself by doing things its already done
I realize that difference is just a dream
Until I find a way, I’m stuck in another routine today

Routines, Routines, I gotta get - out of these
Routines, Routings, I gotta get out of them now
About The Song

Since this song is all orchesteral sounds, all of the sounds are midi controlled synthesizers.

This song was originally written by me in High School and performed by my punk band "Panic." It's obviously gone through a major transition, but the lyrics are mostly intact. Only in the break where it says "Until I find a way, I’m stuck in another routine today" is different, and that's because I can't remember what I originally wrote. This sounds like it would be a great opening song for a movie.
