Daily Dose of Blue

I used to complain
Everything I did in my life
Worked out so well but that wasn't enough
Everything was so fine, nothing on my mind
I was left with emptiness to write about
But my reality was upside down
And I kept wishing I'd get pushed around again
Hoping I would see the past myself again
A broken man with a song to sing again

I'd give anything for that feeling
For the moment that was so revealing
A ghost of the past
Or a pain that would last
That would give me anything to sing about

To find a way that would always show me
Melody and the words to hold me
And everything I said
Would erase the dread
To show me there's no place for regrets

All I wanted to know
Was days would go by
And I'll be left alone
And time wouldn't slow down

All I wanted to know
Was days would go by (Would go by)
And I'll be left alone
And time wouldn't slow down

And I would be the man too blind to see
That being happy is not my reality

And all I wanted to know
Was That I shouldn't hold on
Hold on

When the day came
Reality had hit me hard
Suddenly it wasn't upside down
It was I in the end who had to realize
That everything I did led to my demise
I starved for days
And then I woke up and started to paraphrase
A broken man with a heart of stone
He's come back to take his throne

Now it's time
To leave it all behind
To pass the grief, to pass the lies
To take everything I feel was wrong
Rhyme it up and put it in a song
'Cause this to me is like a therapy now
For the happiness I left behind
It's a daily dose of blue to help me get through
This is just a start of something new

All I wanted to know
Was days would go by (Would go by)
And I'll be left alone
And time wouldn't slow down

And I would be the man too blind to see
That being happy is not my reality
And all I wanted to know
Was That I shouldn't hold on
Hold on

I will find a way back home
Reap the demons that I sowed
Write that story of a broken man
Who thought he just needed to pretend
