Jandek - Blues Turned Black lyrics

Let me tell you about my blues

My blues have turned black

Black, black, black, black

And my rotting stinking flesh

Black, black, black, black

I couldn't stay high

I'm in some cemetery

I don't know where I am

It's been so many years

I lost so many tears

I don't know who I am

It was all a moment in the ocean of time

I thought I had to go

And then I really was gone

I was gone, gone, gone, gone

I lost the way

I went way on tears

It was all I could do

Keep on keeping on

I walked and I walked and I walked and I walked

I didn't see nothing in the midnight blue

My blues turned black

Black, black, black, black

Inside I'm a zombie

Outside I'm unknown

Black, black, black, black

That rotten stinking flesh

Maybe you can't see it

But I know it's for real

My blues have turned black

I forgot how to feel

My blues have turned black

I'm gone, I can't come back
