Creative Urge

Will A. Sanborn

8/2, 8/4, 8/10/93

Sometimes I can't sleep at night
My head's a buzz with creativity

Sometimes my mind moves too fast

I can't keep up
I try to sit still
While my muscles twitch

Sometimes I think of how much I could do

If I had more time
If things didn't get in the way

I'm a Renaissance man

Trapped in the body of an engineer

There's so much I want to do

I've got to hold myself together
Can't spread myself too thin

Sometimes my mind's on fire

I can feel my neurons fire
I'm alive with electricity
Tingling with creativity

Lately I've been manic

Been in a creative panic
And I don't know
If I ever want it to end

I want to run, to paint

To draw, to write, to fly, to be...
Any and all of the above
