Brain Saver

I watch tv or put on a dvd
As respite from my own company
Because I'm much too scared you see
To spend a day on my own

I call up friends or log on the net
Just 5 minutes worth of time to spend
But none of it is ever time well spent
When I spend the day at home

I read a book or play a game
And feel in need of holidays
I'm wasting away in so many ways
I need some time alone

To think through where I am
To know just how to act
To be a mouse or a woman
To move ahead or turn back

I can't turn off my inactive mind
Or even make better use of my time
I would really love to receive a sign
To tell me which way to go
