I want to watch you
But it's hard when I can't
Think
Think
Think straight
Stop changing the channels in my head with your magic remote
It's this then that
What do you want
Where do you want me to look
My eyes cross until I focus
That book
Your hand on my cheek
The bug on your wall
Tiny chips in the laminate floor
Come back
Come back to me
Give me my mind back
I need drugs to stay on task
I don't want to be defined by my attention span
Look over here, kiddo
Attention please, baby
I'm no kid
I am grown
Grown up, why does this happen to me
I should sit through meetings
I can't sit still
Sit with me
Drugs don't help, I don't want them
I can't focus on which is which
Those are for kids, I'm grown
I don't need drugs to stay on task
I need drugs to stay on task
Look here
Over there
Up at me
To you
Vying for my attention
Every last object on my desk
Every pair of eyes in the room
I need drugs to stay on task
