I'm meditating

lazy afternoon
just me, myself and I
thinkin' 'bout thinkin' 'bout nothing
while life passes me by
I'm wasting time
the fault's not mine
and I'm
confessing to the crime
don't bother me
can't you see
I'm meditating

breathe in
breathe out
thinkin' 'bout thinkin' 'bout nothing
with too many thoughts to count
I could be doing
something else
like feeling sorry
for myself
don't bother me
can't you see
I'm meditating

          I could be self-medicating
          like I usually do
          I could be masturbating
          (I know you're thinking "ew")
          I could spend time creating
          masterworks of mind
          I could be cultivating
          something with this time

instead I'm
inhaling
exhaling
thinkin' 'bout thinkin' 'bout nothing
forget about failing
I'm right at home
I'm in the zone
where I don't think
'bout what's unknown
don't bother me
can't you see
I'm meditating
