For You and Little Boy Blue

Riding that same old train
500 miles of twisted track
Those familiar station stops
Where your name is on every sign

I can taste the rum on my lips
The scotch and the vodka too
Those simple sweet poisons
That get me through the day
The week
The month

The pills I take
The drinks I make
For addiction's sake
And for you

And little boy blue.



A quality of ignorance,
Self-deception may be
Necessary to the poet's survival


-Jim Morrison
