Modern Blues

I can breathe, but I'm not gettin what I need
I've got weed, but I still ain't gettin what I need
I guess I need what respiration don't give me, that's inspiration

When I can't breathe I just take a deep breath
But when I'm near death I need more than just air
To all those living here or there, I can't thank you enough for your inspiration

You make me feel so good, like a cold river of wind passin by on a hot day
You take away the pain, no matter how serious the game you make me feel like playing
I've got enough energy in my eyelash to power California for a year, I just need the key, inspiration.
