Need to Hang Around

If you want to break free
But someone´s got your keys
If you´re ready to rock
But there is no electricity
If you want to let loose
But something pulls your breaks
You´re in an interim state
And all you can do is wait

In the past two weeks I could have written
Tons of No.1 Hits
But I was sick
I could have experienced the very peak
Of my creativity
But I was too dizzy

If you want a time out
Deep need to hang around
Full of sweet emptyness
Where nothing meets even less
Catch a cold or a flu
Make the old into new
Enjoy this interim state
Where all you can do is wait

In the past three weeks I could have written
Tons of No.1 Hits
But I was sick
I could have experienced the very peak
Of my creativity
But I was too dizzy
