Lyrics Daniel Johnston

Daniel Johnston

Desperate Man Blues

There ain't no color in the sky, anymore

And I don't feel much like singing

Can't see what for

There ain't no comfort in this life, anymore

All that I can see that's ahead of me

Looks like such a chore

Maybe something will happen

To make it all better, better

Maybe something will come along

And make me happy, happy

There ain't no fun in living, anymore

And I don't feel much like living

Can't see what for

There ain't no life left in me

I feel a bit funny

Like a ghost with nowhere to go

My hope is gone and left me

A desperate man

There’s no spunk left in me

I feel so hollow in me

So empty, so empty, so empty, so empty

A big chunk of what I was is gone

And left me a desperate man

Now I'm a desperate man

A lonely, scared, sad, sorry man

And I just can’t see no color

In the sky, anymore

There's color there I'm sure

But it ain't mine and it's made me blind

A desperate man, desperate

I’m a desperate man
