Analysis of A.D.H.D.
Cody John Waine 1986 (Portland, Oregon)
I'm trying to wind down but my mind is racing
Even though I'm lying down in my mind I'm pacing
Sometimes it's just memories other times it's what could be
Sometimes it's just shiny things like platinum rims and diamond rings
Sometimes I just sit and wonder
How can I break this spell I'm under?
Some thoughts get stuck and I can't break focus
Others like smoke and mirrors, magic, hocus pocus
Here in a flash and gone just as fast
Sometimes they run together, no first or last
So back to my point no secret about me
I have a little thing known as A.D.H.D.
