Mania
I can't be still
I have to - wait
do this
and that
(let's run to burn this off)
I can't focus
there's too much to do
(I'm jogging and I can't stop)
food and sleep are for the weak
I'm too charged for that
-hold on-
should I do that first?
or this?
I could start something new
big, better
if I keep this up I'll finish today
maybe I'll finish life today
-wait-
(I'm running?)
going too fast for the world
I move and move
until I drop
I won't be still
