Blues of Desperation

And I have a wall that I'm laying on

Haven't decided what I'm waiting on

I gave all my love to you in anticipation

Now I live the blues of desperation

Sliding down in a great free fall

Minding my manners, waiting for your call

Heartless in mind, a soul of separation

Now it's the blues, the blues of desperation

Maybe it's the devil doing this to me

Open up the door to divine misery

Hear the wolves howling at my door

One more last time, don't come back no more

The heavens may fall and the rain may come

You fight and you die but what's done is done

Smile at me while I live in damnation

Trying to make sense of these blues of desperation
