And I find myself in these dry times, but I don't mind.

Man, I just live from day to day.

And I had feared I'd be spending the rest of my life under florescent lights, in ennui...

But even I have my own methods, of speaking my problems away.

If I've nothing to say, thanks for the help

Dreaming is just me, fighting myself

And if I have drought, don't think that I am sinking

I get by, with my magical thinking.

And I find myself, fearing for tomorrow

Cause I never know when things might end.

But I'm not worried, and if you ask me why then I'll tell you so

Cause when I worry only more problems begin.

So what's the point of wasting my days, with those obtuse, silly ways?

If I've nothing to say, thanks for the help

Dreaming is just me, fighting myself

And if you have doubt, please don't think that I am sinking

I get by, with my magical thinking.

Author's Comments

I get down on myself a lot for not creating as much writing or art in general that I could. For not expressing myself as much as I think I should because I am very emotional and have a lot to say. But then one day I came to a conclusion: I don't write or anything unless I absolutely feel it, unless something internally or externally cataclysmic happens that a catharsis is needed. I should be doing what I'm doing now, enjoying myself, waiting for that next moment of magic. I always get little thoughts in between my droughts, and I call that magical thinking because those tiny fragments often involve into something bigger, be it in my poetry or my actual music composition. So I like having these dry times, it's during these that I can make great art. It takes actual time to do it anyway, so what the hell. So yeah, I think that's all I have to say. This is me just justifying it to tell myself later, "it's cool. Let it happen when it happens."
