Breakfast table

by @robinkirby

Lyrics

sitting alone at the breakfast table
reading the morning news
trying to decipher the lies from the truth

now I dont wonder why
I’m always blue
maybe that’s the reason I write
and sing the blues
sitting here right now
I
I got the blues
but that’s not something
that I always choose

I'm sitting here at a breakfast table
sitting here alone
sunrise is colored all in
beautiful hues
sitting here at a breakfast table
sitting here at home
wondering what makes people loose

this gives me pause
to think of the cause
why people do the things they do
why do they do always do the crazy things that they do
maybe that’s why
maybe that’s why they get the blues

I’m sitting here at the breakfast table
reading the morning news
trying to decipher the lies from the truth

It's easy to tell when someone in the media is lying, their lips move.

Lovely lazy delivery and the upright bass works very well.

very nice message @robinkirby, and very nice instrumentation. I like the thoughts about the beautiful colors at the same time as the difficult stuff.
