I had the blues but I shook them loose

I had the blues, shaking like I had nothing to lose

It’s funny how our bodies and lives are so openly discussed

It’s funny how when you bring up certain topics people seem disgusted

I bought a case of the blues a few times this month

I bought something I knew was sure to stay

You keep talking nonsense

Are you ready to accept you’ll be stay ing

Inside with me

Are you ready to simply be

You and I, just simply spending time

Should we each go our separate ways

I think they’ll just lead to us being closer than originally intended

I had the blues but I shook them loose

I had the blues but I got a physiatrist

I had the blues

Now an orange prescription bottle is the one I kiss

Want to walk while we talk

Want to be honest and hear my thoughts

I might be chaotic but at least I’m largely consistent

Tit for tat or a game for a fact – none of these interest me

Let’s learn to be consistent and stop playing these stupid games

I love you

And you love me

Let’s learn to love each other properly so we can make 3

So we can make a home we both feel happy living in

Hawaii, Seattle or Alaska

I know the last is something I’m just throwing at ya

Like a muffin hits a brick wall and bounces back

It usually doesn’t

Ever realized how much muffin peels away with the wrapper?

Blueberries in mine

Chocolate chip in yours

We were on a quest

A full belly so we can both get some rest

Where we at?

I know where I am but do you?

I had the blues but I shook them loose
