Warren Zevon is one of my favourite songwriters. He passed away in 2003 from lung cancer, but he left some great songs.
'They say everything's alright
They say better days are near
They tell us these are the good times
But they don't live around here...'
The Indifference of Heaven
Then there's 'Numb As A Statue', which encapsulates much of what I have felt for the last few weeks.
'I'm numb as a statue
I may have to beg, borrow or steal
Some feelings from you
So I can have some feelings too..'
