Don't go to your computer
With your many ideas
Simply walk outside
Into the sunshine
Go to a friend’s house
and waste the day away
Don't write down your inklings
Don't search for paper
Just walk into the next room
Sit down on the couch
And waste the day away
You tell yourself
You will get it done later
But you know
In the back of your head
And in your gut
That it is not so
Just say no
To doing it right
To giving in to society
Make your stand
Just don't do it
Just go back to sleep
When you wake up at midnight
Sit up ramrod straight
Mind racing
Drenched in sweat
Looking at the laptop
Just go back to sleep
Sleep may be slow in coming
As you work out an excuse in your head
You know it will never do
But you have to try
