Young Man Blues



One Day I forgot who I was supposed to be
how you say?
How could that happen to me?
There was someone
Someone Deep Inside of me
Someone I was supposed to be.

Everybody is really two people
deep inside..
The man everybody thinks you are
and the boy you try so hard to hide..
and oh no...
I had to stop the show...
but unlike the emperors new clothes
I had to strip down and walk naked
Under the sun...
Livin under the gun...
I just got tired...
Had nowhere to run..../


Young Man Blues
well I got the news...
Young Man Blues..
I got used....






I decided to define myself
Make myself over again...
I actually enjoyed the ride..
You see, I actually became my friend again...
Found that someone deep inside of me..
Now I remember who I was gonna be...


Young Man Blues
well I got the news...
Young Man Blues..
I got used....







Now No more young man blues...
No more young man blues
Yeah, I got the news..
oh no...
No more Young man Blues.

I didn't quite understand this poem, but I loved the visuals.
