But you let go of everything

Some kind of saviour singing the blues

A derelict in your duct tape shoes

Your orphan clothes and your long dark hair

Looking like you didn't care

Blood spilled out from the hole in your heart

Over the strings of your guitar

The worn down places in the wood

That once had made you feel so good
