lirik lagu richard hell and the voidoids – destiny street
i was walking down the street today
when 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 myself—i was horrified,
but elated too, like i’d
escaped from ten year’s jail
i’d never known was full of h-ll.
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.
i 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 today
i found out twice
that playing for the past or future
is playing with a fool’s paradise.
