THE SAME OLD JOKES NOT MEANT TO BE – PART II He’d have a job And a loving wife To age together Such a perfect normal life Deep down inside His world is grim He surely knows He’s not meant to be He lost every fight Didn’t earn what’s deserved His childhood dreams Have faded out in trails of smoke While he keeps on laughing At the same old jokes He’d write a song About happy times To tell his glories In compound and perfect rhymes But in this life He won’t succeed He really knows He’s not meant to be He surely could have been a star But was afraid to show off Like an infinite storm His heart was filled with scorn Stays home throughout the day Getting stoned all the time His friends have ceased to try To bring him back to life Living a lie Hiding from the ones That once loved you Keep giving up You find out there’s no Answer to your claims You got to feel the pain He lost every right To gain what’s deserved His wildest dreams Have burned out in clouds of smoke While he keeps on laughing At the same old jokes
