Jandek - Blues Turned Black Lyrics

Let me tell you about my blues
My blues have turned black
Black, black, black, black
And my rotting stinking flesh
Black, black, black, black
I couldn't stay high
I'm in some cemetery
I don't know where I am
It's been so many years
I lost so many tears
I don't know who I am
It was all a moment in the ocean of time
I thought I had to go
And then I really was gone
I was gone, gone, gone, gone
I lost the way
I went way on tears
It was all I could do
Keep on keeping on
I walked and I walked and I walked and I walked
I didn't see nothing in the midnight blue
My blues turned black
Black, black, black, black
Inside I'm a zombie
Outside I'm unknown
Black, black, black, black
That rotten stinking flesh
Maybe you can't see it
But I know it's for real
My blues have turned black
I forgot how to feel
My blues have turned black
I'm gone, I can't come back
