I Finally Wrote Another Song by wolftune

A self-aware, ironic, excessively clever quirky song inspired by pseudo-Buddhist perspectives. For my wife.

Lyrics:

I don’t have time to...
have time ’cause
time’s not something to have

but I want to
take time to
make time to
think about my time with you

Do I have the words...
to know what to say
to say what I mean
to *see* what I mean
do I know what I mean?
I don’t know...

My attention goes
to my list of chores
things I should do more
but then I’m not sure and I
find a new chord
but it’s not a new chord
’cause I’ve played it before...

Why’m I so self-conscious,
when consciousness has no self?
Images arise inside of my mind
and I keep tryin’ to put ’em on a shelf

I mean to hold on...
to not let things go
to write it all down
to save thoughts for you
though I know
you’ve got enough of your own...

since this song’s for you
I should stop thinkin’ ’bout me
cliches can be true,
but I just want you to see...
No, I don’t — ok —
so it’s hard,
but I wanna let go of all this
and listen more to you
