Crazy Again Lyrics

The man told me: Son you better start learning, for there is nothing in your life you get for free, and you might just get tired or way too sad to cry, you cannot change it, that’s the way it’ll always be. He said: I used to be like you and I regret it, I’ve seen a lot in life but somehow it got lost, now there's nobody to listen to me when I get home, and that ol' bottle of beer is getting bored as well. And it is within those lonely hours, that I feel caged in, and for a second and a smile, I wish that I was crazy again. There is no way faster than from all to none, them strangers in the barroom do not care, they’re just happy to forget anyone they’ve ever met, hearing lonely heartbreak songs in silent tears. Son, you won’t believe what I’m saying, but I used to be a fighter just like you, And I never got tired of fighting, but of losing all the time, and of harvesting my mistakes of the past. And it is within those lonely hours, that I feel caged in, and for a second and a smile, I wish that I was crazy again. She was my woman and I think that I have loved her, she is the only one I'm even missing now, left me standing in the rain for all that I gave her was pain, all the sadness and the hurt just made her leave. The only home I‘ve left now is this barroom, ‘cause at my place the walls are closing in, and I am drinking and I am talking and I am running out of dough, if you see my future, tell her not to wait for me. I chose life over love within a heartbeat, I chose to be a simple man, but whenever it all falls apart, I wish that I was crazy again.
