Richard Hell And The Voidoids
Destiny Street
I was walking down the street todayWhen I stepped off a curb into ten years agoI was ten years past, and I saw myself at the age of twenty-oneLooking right back at the man I've now become.I scared myself—I was horrified,but elated too, like I'descaped from ten year's jailI'd never known was full of hell.Instantly I realizedthis had happened to me once beforeWhen I was the younger guy,and now I'd have to live it though once more.Yes, I seduced myself.I took me home.I whispered only I could makethe younger guy feel less alone.I was playing with myself.We were playing house,pretending we could hide insidethe past and future to avoid our present self.I loved myself so much that day.Letras de cancionesI thought that I could trick my fate.I took the fall for ten year's time,thinking that it would be a pleasant wait.Yes, down on Destiny Street todayI found out twicethat playing for the past or futureis playing with a fool's paradise.
