Con buena letra 6: Story of my life by Mike Ness

Llevo una semana en el trabajo y me esta costando mucho la vuelta. Demasiado. Han sido solo 17 días pero como no se me va a hacer duro si ya cualquier fin de semana supone una válvula de escape. He estado alejado de la música, sin mi inseperable mp3, sin equipo de música y lo he cogido con ganas. Mi dieta musical durante esta semana ha sido Van Halen, Black Crowes, John Mellencamp y una y otra vez Social Distortion. Una de esas que me dan con el señor Ness, su música y sus letras. Un poeta con un hacha. Recupero una de mis cochambrosas secciones.

Well high school seemed like such a blur,

I didn't have much interest in sports orschool elections

And in class I dreamed all day,'bout a rock 'n' roll weekend

And the girl in the front of the room, so close yet so far y'knowshe never seemed

To noticeIn this silly school-boy crush

Wasn't just pretend
Life goes by so fast,

you only wanna do what you think is right

Close your eyes and then it's past;

Story of my life

And I went down to my old neighborhood,

The faces have all changed,

there's no one left to talk toAnd the pool hall I loved as a kidIs now a Seven Eleven

I went downtown to look for a job,

I had no training, no experience to speak of

I looked at the holes in my jeans

And turned and headed back
Life goes by so fast,

you only wanna do what you think is right

Close your eyes and then it's past

Story of my life

And good times come and good times go,

I only wish the good times would last aLittle longer

I think about the good times we had

And why they had to end

So I sit at the edge of my bed,

I strum my guitar and I sing an outlaw love song

I think about what you're doin' now

And when you're comin' back
Life goes by so fast,

you only wanna do what you think is right.

Close your eyes and then it's past;

Story of my life
