Song of the Plains

I'm thirty-one now and learnin' to play the guitar.

I want you to know I'm determined to find
Some kind of good in this heartache of mine.

I bid goodbye to my facebook friends,
And turned my soul to meditations of Zen.
But it turns out ol' Buddha was wrong,
Another blind king with no clothes on.

Can there be an answer? Is there a way?
To free this heavy heart and keep my mind?
