A New Muse

[Verse 1]

Dear Lord

Let me be anything

But bored or in love

I've been comfortably cursed

Almost blessed to sleep

Now I want to know what I don’t know

And what she sleeps in

[Chorus]

I need a new muse

If she sings for me I’ll sing for you

[Verse 2]

Dear Lord

Let me be anything

But a boy or in love

It’s a double-edged word

Both sides will cut you clean

I too often forget if I’m in or out of it

[Chorus]

I bleed the most

Turn my blood into poetry

That’s why I need to know what she sounds like when she sings

[Bridge]

My neck hurts

From holding my head up straight

For so long

My feet hurt

From standing in one place

For so long

[Outro]

Dear Lord

Let me be anything

But loved or in love
