In his late teens He felt so lost He never told what he felt to anyone He just took drugs and stayed indoors Spared from the cancer-causing summer sun
At 21,he fell in love With a brick wall and it set him back The pain was great His feelings' crushed He smoked some hash to make it black
Long dark twenties Long dark twenties Long dark twenties Long dark twenties
As he approached His later years The desperation took him by the throat
It choked him off It choked him up The feelings inside became so remote
He sized things up He was dismayed At how the years had flown by so fast
He had a future He had a dream But all he really wanted was to have a past
Long dark twenties Long dark twenties Long dark twenties Long dark twenties
[instrumental break]
People admit They've made mistakes And hope that history will not repeat
They count their blessings And pray for more Hug their lovers and then go to sleep
He sleeps alone He always has And after all these years, it's not so bad
But there are mornings He bolts awake And he is overwhelmed by feeling sad
