Friday Night Blues (or) Am I Experienced?

Everyday is like the last
swallowing pride
overcoming my past.

And as Jimi's wind whispers Mary
one more time tonight
i close my eyes
and turn out the light
dreaming or 
trying to dream
it all away
anyway.

One beer too many
or one not enough
doesn't really matter
when you're drinking vodka anyway
and i'm trying to figure out
if i'm experienced
have i ever been
experienced?

So the dreams are clouded
with a purple haze
Jimi composing the background
like some inspired soundtrack
to this romantic comedy
of personal horror
and i turn back on the lights
a sleepless friday night.

But sleep again i will
in this manic depression
as the music fades to black
and beer and vodka
take me there
on my back
again
with love and confusion
anyway
tomorrow is another day.
