Blindfold by Eric Armitage Lyrics
[Intro]
Can’t write, won’t write
Can’t write, won’t write
Can’t write, won’t write
I’m like a stone's throw away
Can’t write, won’t write
Can’t write, won’t write
*humming melody - trails off*
[Verse 1]
Writer’s block, writer’s block - go away, writer’s block
Every line I drop is less ill than what I forgot
Did I fall behind? Oh, is fire hot? (Fire’s hot!)
Man, whatever - roll up to the spot and take a double shot
Feelin’ so blue, sippin’ Johnnie Walker on the rocks
Boy in the Hubba Bubba bubble that I’m tryna pop
Mr. I-Don’t-Got-No-Friends-On-My-Roster
Mr. Upstairs, I’m Mr. Kokoshka
Please, call me Oscar - I’m grouchy
Word to ones who talk a lot but don’t know a lot about me
Friends these days getting mouthy
I wouldn’t do that if I were you, hope you brought a mouthpiece
Tryna spread peace, no piece that I’m carryin'
Smoke a peace pipe like I’m native American
If I don’t make it through the good fight - goodnight
Hopefully a quiet lil’ place I get buried in
[Hook]
I can’t write, oh, who turned my lights off
Every night, oh, I should take a night off
Fuck my life, oh, who turned my life off
Lost my sight or is this just a blindfold
[Bridge]
Writer’s block, writer’s block, come again another day
Lookin’ at the world like a runaway - run away
I don’t wanna feel like this - if life is real like this
I’ll stay here inside my quiet place, stone-faced
Heart turned brick from the days that I spent here
Just keep saying that it’s nothing like last year
I can barely write a full song without tearin’ up
Every time I try, I just tear it up
[Verse 2]
Used to be a happy kid - that was like 2010
Dark clouds came, guess I’ll never see the sun again
Used to finish lines so quick, I was runnin' then
Now I barely write, I’m so sick to my stomach, man
Pepto Bismol just won’t do the trick
I don’t feel shit at all, I’m as cold as it gets
All my light is being blocked like a solar eclipse
They never told me that it would be like this
Always play it cool - I don’t know what pain is
Always tryna find a better way I can explain it
Tell a couple jokes while I make it through the anguish
Hid from myself - I forgot what my name is
Anybody there? Hello? Can you hear me?
Been so long, I don’t want nobody near me
Melancholy greys and the skies turn dreary
Eyes look weary, I can’t see clearly - clearly
[Hook]
I can’t write, oh, who turned my lights off
Every night, oh, I should take a night off
Fuck my life, oh, who turned my life off
Lost my sight or is this just a blindfold
[Outro]
I don’t wanna, I don't wanna!
I don’t wanna, I don't wanna!
I don’t wanna write at all, I don't wanna write at all
I don’t wanna, I don't wanna!
I don’t wanna, I don't wanna!
I don’t wanna, I don't wanna
Can’t write, won’t write
Can’t write, won’t write
Can’t write, won’t write
I’m like a stone's throw away
Can’t write, won’t write
Can’t write, won’t write
*humming melody - trails off*
[Verse 1]
Writer’s block, writer’s block - go away, writer’s block
Every line I drop is less ill than what I forgot
Did I fall behind? Oh, is fire hot? (Fire’s hot!)
