This sort of came together one night, when I couldn't write a song, couldn't write an article, so I started thinking of writing about writing. More added recently... by March 1 this could be folk song!
I have some ideas for the sound here, kind of spacy electronic... I'll have to play around some. Still not happy with the title.
Accomplishing Nothing
Accomplishing Nothing
Accomplishing Nothing at a rapid pace
Now I can't get sleep
My mind is stuck on high
Running in circles
Creative well run dry
Post a hundred memes
Didn't change a single mind
Wote ten-thousand words
But I left the point behind
Accomplishing Nothing
Accomplishing Nothing
Accomplishing Nothing at a rapid pace
Just had a tune idea
But it quickly got away
Resigned two hours past
I'd get nothing done today
Now I can't find rhyme
My lines just twist and fight
All pulling at my mind
Until I can get it right
Accomplishing Nothing
Accomplishing Nothing
Accomplishing Nothing at a rapid pace
The moon goes up
The sun falls down
And here I stand
Chasin' thoughts around
The days go past
The time slips by
Obsessively
Can't stop before I die
Accomplishing Nothing
Accomplishing Nothing
Accomplishing Nothing at a rapid pace
Spent the day inside
Head bashing up the wall
Why try for anything
If I can't have it all
It's closing on 5am
And I've gone nowhere fast
The sun will be rising soon
Give me the strength to last
Accomplishing Nothing
I'm learning Nothing
Accomplishing Nothing
I'm learning Nothing
Accomplishing Nothing at a rapid pace
I'm learning Nothing
I'm learning nothing.

I hope you do! Its a very good lyric, would fit many genres certainly a spacey one!! Strong chorus which hammers the point!m
