stay busy,
stay busy,
as busy as you possibly can.
feed your eyes
have a phone in your hand.

make sounds,
deliberate noise,
bang a hammer
or sing with your voice.
play music - something phat,
The Mars Volta!
something like that.

pump your head,
bang it with things,
stay busy
stay busy
or demons grow wings.

stay in motion
never sit still
go for a run
up a hill
on a treadmill
chase a woman,
or a man
if that’s what you will.

tabloid tragic
gozzip magic
hollywood fix
facebook
twitter
why not netflix.
just keep it flowing
until you creep,
stay busy
stay busy
until
you
have
to
sleep.

that’s when
you’re screwed,
that’s when
you lose shape,
the night puts your guard down,
in dreams
there is no escape.

tomorrow.
you do it all over,
for as long as you can
fool yourself.
