A pill to help you sleep.
Caffeine to help you stay awake.
Rewards to make you motivated.
Smiles to make you happy.
Because living has to be so hard
that we need extra help
to take part in life.
But when the fault lines crack
when you can't sleep
and you can't stay awake.
When disease lingers
and misfortune comes too often.
When you can't get motivated
and smiles seem to mock your misery,
who repairs?
Who repairs the faulty system?
A life mechanic?
No, I guess not.
The logical answer
is you.
You have to repair yourself.
How?
When nothing seems to work.
I would like to know.
How to start in that direction,
if guidance is allowed.
How do you repair your motivation, without motivation?
How do you feel happy, when you can't find happiness?
