I Could Live Here ... Again...

I passed by the home where I grew up in today... and it was so weird... lookin' around... down the street... at all the houses... and I looked and I looked... and I did not see one single person walking around...

It seems like so little has changed and yet, of course, so much has changed...

And I thought... if I could do this again... like if I was given a red re-do button... what would it all be like...

Would I have ended up rich...
Would I have ended up successful...
Would I have ended up popular...
Would I have ended up dead...

It is so weird when it is like only fifty miles away...
but twenty years away...
... a world away...
and now... where a random specific smell... a fleeting flash of an image... a half fragment of a spoken sentence... it jogs your memory that floods in the days of remember when...

I guess in some strange way... I could find myself... living here... again...

In a word... butwhywouldi...

...well hey Nicklebee... you still hangin' around...
