Ain't You Dead ?

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
Threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
People call say 'beware doll, you're bound to fall'
You used to laugh 'bout
Everybody that was hanging out
Now you don't talk so loud
Now you don't seem so proud
How does it feel in being like an abandoned condom....

I've got yesterday's smile on my face
My head in the sand
And a castle in outer space

How does it feel, how does it feel?
To be on your own, with no direction home
A complete unknown, like a rolling stone

When I thought everything was going fine

I couldn't see the cracks 'cause I was dreaming

...with no one saying '' it's not up-tempo enough''

I wanna die is the thought

which comes to my friend in a haze
