as i came back to my hometown

everything was so breezy and cold

i lay down and wondered

as the coldness grew in me too

pain struggles around me

and what was supposed to be

the love of my life

looks different tonight

i'm pretty helpless meanwhile

all i can see means nothing to me

as i'm too old for those

playing the music of yesterday

i think i should shoot me tonight

i don't know no more where to go

it looks as if future has its bite

on me

the strength in me

was mere fantasy

the power to be

i no longer see

who's out & about

to soothe my soul

to give me the rhythm

of the old rock'n'roll
