Blue City Blues

Blue city
Blue city
Tell me all the things you see
Blue city
Blue city
You’re gonna be the death of me


The world don’t need another poet
But nonetheless here I am
A poet? Ha
If I can even call myself that
I’m just another angry man
Unimpressed by the state of the world
Trying to get a revolution
By writing a bunch of meaningless words

Blue city
Blue city
Whisper all the things you know
Blue city
Blue city
Bathed in an unnatural neon glow

I’ve lived a while now
And I’m beginning to understand
That life is just a game of cards
In which we are all dealt losing hands
The only way to win is lie
Convince them that you’re something more
Otherwise they’ll see your face
And in it shut the door

Blue city
Blue city
Show me who I really am
Blue city
Blue city
Show me if you can
