Writer's Block

He gets his film, he gets his star

And I'm alone with my guitar

The girl that I've loved all along

Left the songwriter who can't write a song

So how am I supposed to write

A tune to make the heart take flight

And also make my soul forget

I'm only half a love duet?

'Cause if a broken man in a state of shock

Cannot make a friend of his writer's block

Then what do you do?

It's the pain that makes the art

Like when love just falls apart

Well, I should use my jealousy

As a fuel to crank out this tune within me

But what am I supposed to do

If I can't make her dreams come true?

And while I hope that she succeeds

I can't give her the song she needs

'Cause if there's not a key that fits to unlock

An imprisoned mind from a writer's block

Then what do I do?
