Walking, I Stagger

Walking, I stagger
 Lying down, I sink
 Running, I fall
 In silence, I think
 I think, therefore I ain't
 Always a sinner,
 Never a saint
 Never a winner
 A picture with no paint
 Flat, white, cold and bare
 Point at me standing here
 No expression, no hope
 A poison with no antidote
 Tickle my fancy, please do
 Color me any shade of blue
 Broken and bruised
 Make me your pain
 Walk away from me
 But come back again
