When she woke up in the morning,
She made herself some coffee.
And her friends teased her as she poured in her 4th packet of sugar,
And the caffeine awoke her senses after a long night of laughing.
She drove them all to school and got them all breakfast,
And she smiled during class
And understood the concepts
Then she ate a big dinner and went to bed
When she woke up in the morning,
She made herself some tea.
And she scolded herself as she added her 4th packet of sugar,
And she didn't need the caffeine but she inhaled it anyway.
She drove herself to uni and skipped breakfast,
And she grimaced during her lectures
And didn't listen to the concepts
Then she ate a cheap dinner and went to the club alone.
When she woke up at midday,
She got a cup of water,
Because she had heard that tea and coffee made you fat
So even though she needed the caffeine she went through in a daze.
She ran to uni and skipped breakfast,
And slept during her lectures
And didn't even know they were being taught concepts.
Then she skipped dinner and went to work.
When she woke up at midday,
She poured herself a shot,
Because who gives a damn about being fat if you can ignore the world,
She didn't add any sugar, because she couldn't be bothered to go to the shops,
And she was already hungover but kept drinking anyway,
And she didn't go to uni,
And she didn't go to her lecture,
Even though today was the exam on all those concepts
Then she didn't eat dinner and she didn't go to work.
When she woke up in the evening,
She sent her old best friend a text,
She didn't drink anything and she didn't care.
Because all she wanted was a reply.
She was too late to go to uni,
So she set an alarm for tomorrow,
Then she scratched up some food for dinner and organised better shifts at work.
When she woke up in time,
She realised she had a life.
Because her best friend had replied,
She had found a new degree,
And she had another coffee.
