“21st Century Blues” is one of two iTunes pre-order bonus tracks from Maida’s debut album. It was not included on any physical releases.
I just don't know what to do
I drank poison and it tasted like you
It's getting to be these 21st century blues
There's a bird on my windowsill
And he's been watching and laughing at our ills
I should follow him south, a vacation is long overdue
When I crawl but I don't want you to save me
I looked up and there's no clouds but it's raining
I am everything I need to get through
See I get lost in this life
I'm unbalanced, oh, I've always been uptight
My doctor told me, "A bottle of wine will keep you true"
When I crawl but I don't want you to save me
I looked up and there's no clouds but it's raining
I am everything I need to get through
There's a knock on my door so it must be timе
There's a note on thе table for you
There's a war of my own that I have to fight
And I can't, no I can't afford to lose
I just don't know what to do
I drank poison and it tasted like you
It's getting to be
It's getting to me
It got to me
Oh
When I crawl but I don't want you to save me
I looked up and there's no clouds but it's raining
I am everything I need to get through
Raine Maida released 21st Century Blues on Mon Jan 01 2007.
