Lyrics
The Poet Inside out and upside down, I don’t know why I hang around. Pain is the Poet of the Blues. Through night, shadows call I wake and stare and climb the walls Pain is the Poet of the Blues. And lately he’s been writing… Without you I’m just crying? Lately he’s been writing…about you. We can walk the walk- we can talk the talk, We can wear it on our sleeves. Pain is the poet of the blues. We can kid ourselves, we can say we care. It’s only breath and empty air. Pain is the poet of the blues. And lately he’s been writing… Man I feel I’m dying Lately he’s been writing…about you. My heart plays the part of the book. Your heart plays the pen upon the page. The poet smiles and leaves you with a look. This old world she tugs and pulls, Anymore I’d have to bleed. Pain is the poet of the blues. And lately he’s been writing… Are we all done trying? (Turn) And lately he’s been writing…about me too.
