Married to the blues

I never win at love
At love I always lose
I keep looking for a good man
And I ain't got no clue
I can't find no one to love me
I guess I'm married to the blues
Married to the blues

There's a picture by my bedside
In a frame that's got a crack
Of one of my old lovers
Who ain't never comin' back
He swore he'd never leave me
Then I saw him start to pack
Start to pack

Oh when you're married to the blues
Married to the blues
You don't get no band of gold
All you get is a lonely cab ride
To a bed that's always cold
When you're married to the blues
Forget that honeymoon
All you get is luke-warm lovin'
That's over way, way too soon

There's a letter in my pocket
It's all torn
Torn and frayed
The only thing
Only thing he left me
When he ran
Ran away
Now when you're married to the blues
It gets more lonely everyday

Oh... All these blues

I knew he would leave me
He was never comin' back
He left me a torn letter
Then he ran away
Ran away
Married to the blues
Oh... All these blues

You get so lonely
Lonely
Lonely
Lonely

 
Married to the blues

The Nortons feat Shemekia Copeland 

Continental Shelf

 
You'll be around until you're gone
Crystallized, cancelled eyes
Illegitimate merchandise
Don't want to face the world

It's suffocating (suffocating)

Undesireable circumstances

I can't feel, no I can't feel

Fingertips in the fountain

Fondle liquid gold

Ice on the horizon
The skyline folding in






Nothing is beginning

Edges falling off of themselves

And the water is draining

Off the continental shelf

Check your anxiety

No need to suffer silently

Convulsion vibrating

Being violated (violated)

Don't want to reminisce




I can't remember (can't remember)



Viet Cong

Far

Take me far away
To escape myself
Cos I was born to suffer



 

It kills my mind
It kills me inside
Happens all the time






Every time I try to fight
This life gets harder every time




 

And it kills my mind
It kills me inside
It kills me outside







Take me far away
To escape my self



 

I was born to suffer
It kills my mind
It kills me inside
Happens all the time






Every time I try to fight
This life get harder every time




 

It still kills me inside



 

It skill kills me inside




It still kills me inside






Take me far away to escape myself...

The Soft Moon

Behind Blue Eyes

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

No one knows what it's like
To be hated
To be fated
To telling only lies

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

No one knows what it's like
To feel these feelings
Like I do
And I blame you

No one bites back as hard
On their anger
None of my pain and woe
Can show through

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

When my fist clenches, crack it open
Before I use it and lose my cool

When I smile, tell me some bad news
Before I laugh and act like a fool

If I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat

If I shiver, please give me a blanket
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man



 

Behind blue eyes.

Mood Indigo

You ain't never been blue, no, no, no
You ain't never been blue
Till you've had that mood indigo






That feeling goes stealing right down to my shoes
While I just sit here and sigh
Go along blues






I always get that mood indigo
Since my baby said goodbye
And in the evening when the lights are low
I'm so lonely I could cry





For there's nobody who cares about me
I'm just a poor fool that's bluer than blue can be
When I get that mood indigo
I could lay me down and die






You ain't been blue, no, no, no
You ain't never been blue
Till you've had that mood indigo
That feeling goes stealing right down to my shoes
While I just sit here and sigh





Go along blues

Nina Simone

How long have you known?

How long have you known?

How long have you known?

Forever?

Forever?

Forever, if ever?

How long have you known?

How long has it shown?

Forever?

Forever?

Forever, if ever, at all?

Turn Blue

In the dead of the night I start to lose control

But I still carry the weight like I've always done before

It gets so heavy at times but what more can I do

I got to stay on track just like paps told me to

I really don't think you know

There could be hell below, below

I really do hope you know

there could be hell below, below

When the music is done and all the lights are low

I will remember the times when love would really glow

I could dream ahead before my world turned blue

And the light inside would only shine for you

I really don't think you know

There could be hell below, below

I really do hope you know

there could be hell below, below

I really don't think you know

There could be hell below, below

I really do hope you know

There could be hell below, below
