"Things On My Mind"
by John Welton
© 2004
I've been takin' a beating
from life lately
maybe I deserve it
I make my share of mistakes
and I'm far away from perfect
so maybe I got a karmic debt
that I just haven't paid off
yet
I know I got to pay my debts
I never meant to send so many
rubber checks
I've been searchin' for
somethin' but I don't know how to find it
i'm not sure what it is but I
think I'm right behind it
It always seems just beyond
my grasp
sometimes I can't help but
ask... why me?
I guess I'll know what it's
all about just when I'm all the way down and out!
sometimes you got to lose it
all just to see what's left
and sometimes you got to
nearly die to see you're not dead yet
you might have to open your
eyes just to see that you're blind
I don't know what all of this
means just some things on my mind
I've been meaning to work on
my procrastination
soon as I get around to
working on my lack of motivation
I know that there should be
nothing to it all I gotta do is get up and do it
with all my thoughts spinning
round and round
there's no kind of progress
to be found
I've been racking my brain
lately tryin' to organize it
seems to make it more
complicated when I over-analyze it
I check the places that they
tell you to look
self-help and metaphysical
books
I could read every book on
the shelf
but the answer gonna come
from within myself
