If you don't mind a good amount of screaming in your music (or if you're particularly worked up and need some screaming), there's a song called "Boiled Frogs" by Alexisonfire that is about this topic. Very very good.
In other news, this exact topic is my biggest fear in the world. I hope I never wake up 20 years later and realize I've been doing the exact same thing the whole time.

The analogy is that if you take a frog and put it in boiling water, it will jump right out immediately, but if you put it in cold water and then you slowly turn the heat up, they'll just eventually fall asleep and die. Same way with people in the workplace. If it's too hectic when they first get there, they'll just quit and get another job, but if you slowly up the workload, lower the pay, they're more likely to sit there and just boil." (Sorry, I really like the song)
