ja•ded  1: fatigued by overwork  2: made dull, apathetic, or cynical by experience.

        Everyday is exactly the same.  I think I'm trapped in the land of de ja vu, because I repeat the same routine.
        There was a purpose to my existence once, or so I think.  It's always possible that could've been a dream.
        When everything was spontaneous and exciting, I had something called a voice.  The repetition of the days have ceased me from making a sound.  Now, I just sit in my cubicle like a good, little accountant, count everyone's money except my own, and do exactly as I'm told late at night when no one is around.
        There's no love in this corporate and cold office environment.  Somehow without love here, there is also the absence of pain.
        My memory can't seem to recall how this repetitious life was started. However, if this "life" of mine continues this way, I will be able to tell you exactly how it will end.
Page 11 of ABC journal.

The song "Everyday is Exactly the Same" by Nine Inch Nails, in narrative form. Spoken by an accountant stuck in the repetition of his life, and is slowly becoming apathetic.
