Paroles de Destiny Street
I was walking down the street todayWhen I stepped off a curb into ten years ago
I was ten years past, and I saw myself at the age of twenty-one
Looking right back at the man I've now become.
I scared myselfI was horrified,
but elated too, like I'd
escaped from ten year's jail
I'd never known was full of hell.
Instantly I realized
this had happened to me once before
When 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 make
the younger guy feel less alone.
I was playing with myself.
We were playing house,
pretending we could hide inside
the past and future to avoid our present self.
I loved myself so much that day. Yes, down on Destiny Street today
I found out twice
that playing for the past or future
is playing with a fool's paradise.
