I was strung out and still high from last night I started to fall The never ending hell was upon me, and man did I give a damn I said I choose to live now, cos who knows what’s to come But I guess I never knew what hit me… Till I woke up on the ground (Yeah that was something. Let’s do that again…) The third day in a row was coming to an end. And so was I Watching old tapes from a distant time. Just feelin’ fine I had a feeling I would live forevermore But just next to me they had gone to sleep and left me hanging out to dry I never thought that life could hurt me, there I was the magic man THE MAGIC MAN Left me up and carry me, I cannot feel my legs anymore THE MAGIC MAN Purgatory here I come, just meet me at the gates of HELL Good times they will come and go, just allow them to be real I could show you all the things I did, but you wouldn’t wanna see Don’t take it out on me. Livin’ ain’t for free I’m coming home tonight So this is the story of my life? What a fool a man can be I got a pat on my back and they told me: you better behave I did not know then, but I sure know now I will never forget the day when the Devil shook my hand
