MEN MY AGE (5:02)
written by Blake J Berglund (SOCAN/ASCAP)

lyrics

I remember a better time before what I'd become
Back when a day was half over
And I was planning out the rest with the heat from the rising sun
Now I'm sleeping in 'til noon

So the phonebook took me to a leather couch in the room with another man
Lying on my back and staring at the ceiling
Talking 'bout problems I never even knew I had
A professional opinion on what to do
He said you might find weight gained and suicidal tendencies
And be sure to take with food

Ya find yourself flirting with the line the good Lord drew you years ago
Tearing down the tarmac going just about as fast as one can go
Oh and then the pain starts slowly creeping in on men my age

It's clear that someone's pockets line with each prescription filled
I got red ones and orange ones and yellow and green ones
That are all supposed to help
Violet, indigo and blue
They seem to makes things better as long as I can fight the urge to
Wash'em down with booze

(Nightmare Rambling)
