This is not the blues
This goes much, so much deeper
Doctor says I need some rest
Having therapy will be the best
I should be on drugs for a while
It’ll flatten my emotions
I’ll be back in no time
That’s for sure, yeah you’ll see
I can even choose to pay in cash
Session by session
Or have a monthly bill
And when I stand in front of the mirror
A gun to my head
Light has bled out of my eyes
I don’t pull the trigger
‘Causse it’ll make a mess
And maybe, just maybe
This is the blues after all
