I just put my guitar down.
Been playing since before the sun came up.
This happens from time to time.
A strong urge to play, like I need it to survive.
I can’t figure out where it comes from, this force.
When it happens, I sorta lose the sense of where I am.
I’m just dialed in and I play until the feeling leaves.
It seems to just end, you know? Like it has no more juice.
Sometime, later today or tomorrow, I’ll get a strange feeling that makes me hate having this urge to play.
I don’t know where that comes from either.
It seems like I feel bad that I’m not always in that zone, just playing without any thoughts.
Or maybe that I won’t let myself get there often.
I guess that’s why it usually happens, the urge, before I’m even awake.
It kinda wakes me and doesn’t give me time to get my bearings.
I know it sounds like it’s in control and that’s how it feels.
I always seem to play my best when it happens.
Sometimes, I have a hard time figuring me out.
I love and hate most things in my life.
Don’t think this will ever change, but, you know, I do alright for a guy just wanting to exist.
