Yer Blues

in AlbumWhite Album

[...two, three]

Yes I'm lonely wanna die

Yes I'm lonely wanna die

If I ain't dead already

Ooh girl you know the reason why

In the morning wanna die

In the evening wanna die

If I ain't dead already

Ooh girl you know the reason why

My mother was of the sky

My father was of the earth

But I am of the universe

And you know what it's worth

I'm lonely wanna die

If I ain't dead already

Ooh girl you know the reason why

The eagle picks my eye

The worm he licks my bone

I feel so suicidal

Just like Dylan's Mr. Jones

Lonely wanna die

If I ain't dead already

Ooh girl you know the reason why

Black cloud crossed my mind

Blue mist round my soul

Feel so suicidal

Even hate my rock and roll

Wanna die yeah wanna die

If I ain't dead already

Ooh girl you know the reason why

[Yes I'm lonely wanna die...]

Written by John Lennon, it captures his personal struggles at the time, expressing a dark mood and a cry for help. Key moments include the lyrical confessions like 'The eagle picks my eye, the worm he licks my bone,' symbolizing pain and decay, and 'Even hate my rock and roll,' showing disillusionment with what once brought joy. This song stands out for its raw emotion and candid portrayal of mental anguish.
