The sandwich half-eaten sits alone on the counter
Left forgotten all alone
The dog smells something delicious
It won't last very long
Left forgotten all alone
The final assignment looms overhead
It won't last very long
Though I lack the motivation to do it
The final assignment looms overhead
It's important for my future
Though I lack the motivation to do it
I know that eventually it will disappear
It's important for my future
This is an extremely rare opportunity
I know that eventually it will disappear
And yet it always passes by
This is an extremely rare opportunity
The dog smells something delicious
And yet it always passes by
The sand half-eaten sits alone on the counter
