You're mind is running amok because it is trying to use meditation for gaining something. It is what wants to gain intuitive perception, and it is the part that wants that so that it doesn't need to think anymore. It is a bit counter-intuitive, but it is the ego that wants to be free of the ego, because desire arises from the self.
What you can do is just forget about trying to be more intuitive, and instead look at you self and your desires. Just sit down and listen to your mind for every time it wants something. Every time you find that "you" want something, simply think "my ego wants this/that/the other." Don't attempt to not want it, because that is another desire. "My ego wants to not want this/that/the other." It's not strictly meditation, but it does let you know what shenanigans your ego is up to :-D
