Sometimes it's hard to know
If you're going or if you're gone
So you dodge from right to left
Never knowing which way is wrong, no
You're holding strong to all you know
It's slipping fast until you fall

You're like a sinner in a sin
Never losing or never win
Well, I'm a poet without a pen
I've always been and I'd do it again

Gonna paint the town tonight
I'll use colors green and amber
I'm like a painter without a brush
I have a picture that fails to capture
And it's the chaos I understand
It's the calmness in my rants of anger

Just like a sinner in a sin
No, the Loser will never win
Well, I'm a poet without a pen
I've always been and I'd do it again

One day I'm going to wake up
And I know that the sun is going to shine
Keeps on shining down
I know that the clouds they are gonna part
Yes and I know its' rays they will find me
Keeps on shining down

You might say that I'm beaten down
Just so you'll always know
There's not a grain that's worth reaping
If your seed can't grow, ah no

Like a sinner in a sin
Never losing or never win
A poet without a pen
I've always been and I'd do it again

Oh, I'm a sinner in a sin
Oh, Never losing or never win
Well, I'm a poet without a pen
I've always been
And I'd do it again

Oh well, I'm a poet without a pen
And I've always been
And I'd do it again
