Lovesick Blues

See I'm under that same spell

Trace the face of an angel

Love sick blues and I ain't well

Loneliness, is when the kiss of death's your only kiss

And true love is a myth cause it doesn't exist

It's like being struck by the fist of a pacifist

It's a cancerous bliss

Who's your master in this? And who's he work for?

Love can make a free man a slave and make him hurt more

Than a life sentence spent with jealousy

Man if love is blind, how can it always follow me?

[Chorus]

It was all a dream

Satan wore Satin and God rocked gabberdein

Angels in ancient apparel, denim wearing demons

And there was love… looking like a heathen

And there was love looking like a reason to exist

Bleeding at the wrist evening the risk

I'm easin' down the abyss of misfortune

Is love all we need or an extortion?

I approach with honesty to be honorable

But honesty was unemployed and didn't work anymore

And jealousy was with love lookin' envious

And anywhere I went with love jealousy would come with us

And jealousy would always be the treachery of deceit

The treasury of the weak

I couldn't see my love blinded by jealousy

While God was demonic and the devil laughed angelically

[Chorus]

You see,

Love is the only invincible feeling, pure yet it's haunted

Given it's the only thing we need, but when given to freely from the needy we don't want it

So we lose it, spend our days tryin' to find it

When we find it we spend our days walking blinded

Blinded by happiness, jealousy, most times spent confused

Hate to love it but I do, and them's the love sick… blues
