i may be getting old but i´m far from out of angst
because the problems that i face on the day to day don´t go away.
life it ain´t so civilized when it comes down to survive
and i´ve had the ones that i thought as family push me to the side.
i´m still in debt i can´t pay my rent, my teeth are rotting in my head.
i may be getting old, but it ain´t over yet.
i got so much left to say, i can´t believe i´m here again
right back where i started from with an ego left to mend.
we started out as friends and in the end i hope to be
but the problems that you hope to fix won´t go away with me.
i´m uninsured i´m overdrawn i´m as broke as one can get.
i may be getting old, but it ain´t over yet.
what happens when the dreams of fame and fortune don´t come true.
and work replaces everything in life you live to do.
when the romance is gone,
the road gets long and the numbers are all you´ve got
and the hour that you spent on stage doesn´t add up to what you thought.
so you can fill my shoes with a fresh new face
you can talk all the shit you want,
but you can´t replace my dignity or the feelings in my heart.
life can be unfair sometimes it´s a fact i´ve had to accept.
but in everything that i´ve given up i´ve gained my self respect.
