Desperation Blues
Mark Duggan
GENRE
[Verse 1]
Well you woke me up in the morning
Saying I gotta go away
Well you woke me up in the morning honey
Saying I gotta go away
Then you go and ask me what's on my mind and know
I'd probably not tell you the truth anyway
[Verse 2]
You know I never got why you stayed with me
Longer than you really wanted to
You know after as this time I still don't get why you stayed with me
Longer than you really wanted to
Well I'm sorry for wasting a good month of your life
I never wanted to be a dead weight on you
[Verse 3]
Most nights I lie in bed in a cold sweat
Touch of your lips floating in the air
Since then I wake up most night in a cold sweat
The touch of your lips hanging in the air
It's kinda funny how you left me so easy but I never got to leave you
And honey that ain't really fair
[Verse 4]
These days feels like everybody's leaving somebody
It just seems to be the thing to do
Well these days feels like everybody's leaving somebody behind
It just seems to be the thing to do
Lotta people I tried to keep a hold of
Who were determined to only ever just be passing through
[Verse 5]
You know there must be somewhere I should be
But I've no idea where is it that I should be going to
I get to thinking there must be somewhere I should be by now
But I've no idea where I should be going to
You can get so sick and tired of being yourself sometimes
Thinking of all I've done wrong that I wish that I were you
[Verse 6]
There's always just somethings you can't work out or around
No matter how hard or long you try
There's always just somethings you can't work out or around
No matter how hard or long you try
I've spent so long tryna get through walls instead of doors
That I've left a lotta my life just pass me by
[Verse 7]
Feel like I could do with starting over
With a brand new lick of paint
When I look at myself feel like I could do with starting over
You know maybe with a brand new lick of paint
Go down to the river to wash my sins away
Come back wearing the clothes of a saint
[Verse 8]
I feel I'm saying a lot of things but when you think about it
I'm not saying anything at all
I feel like I'm saying a lot of things
But really man I'm not saying anything that means anything or matters at all
It's just that I get so desperate these days
For something anything I just don't know who to call
[Verse 9]
Well it's goodnight Vienna goodnight ma
Won't you try and get some rest
Yeah well nothing to say but goodnight Vienna goodnight ma and goodnight pa
Won't you please just try and get some rest
Today wasn't what we wanted it to be but you know and believe
That everybody's trying their best
[Outro]
It's raining
So full of silence
So full of silence
Silence
Well you woke me up in the morning
Saying I gotta go away
Well you woke me up in the morning honey
Saying I gotta go away
Then you go and ask me what's on my mind and know
I'd probably not tell you the truth anyway
[Verse 2]
You know I never got why you stayed with me
Longer than you really wanted to
You know after as this time I still don't get why you stayed with me
Longer than you really wanted to
Well I'm sorry for wasting a good month of your life
I never wanted to be a dead weight on you
[Verse 3]

Touch of your lips floating in the air
Since then I wake up most night in a cold sweat
The touch of your lips hanging in the air

And honey that ain't really fair
