I was doing time In the universal mind I was feeling fine I was turning keys I was setting people free I was doing all right

Then you came along With a suitcase and a song Turned my head around Now I'm so alone Just looking for a home In every place I see

I'm the freedom man!

Jim Morrison in 1967:

[shamansbluezz]

He had the intelligence to know that madness leads to more madness. And it had no constructive end to it, in that he could come out the other side and say, “I proved something” or “I did something.” That would be courageous to know that at the end of it all was just madness, death and destruction. Maybe he was emulating Rimbaud’s theory that a disarrangement of the senses leads to... But I don’t think Rimbaud was like that, I think Rimbaud was misunderstood. I think Jim was maybe emulating the popular belief of what Rimbaud did: “Rimbaud’s Legend” you might say. Jim might have been reliving that, but Rimbaud didn’t live up to his legend.

“I didn't love Jim Morrison 'cause he was self-destructive. I loved him because of his work. Because of the way he merged poetry and rock 'n' roll.” — Patti Smith

the Doors - Yes, The River Knows

Please, believe me The river told me Very softly Want you to hold me, ooh  Free fall flow, river flow On and on it goes Breathe under water ‘til the end Free fall flow, river flow On and on it goes Breathe under water ‘til the end Yes, the river knows Please, believe me If you don’t need me I’m going, but I need a little time I promised I would drown myself In mysticated wine
