I can tell you from my own experience standing here

The future will always seem uncertain and unclear

However, your own actions may end up being your source of fear

Just remember things are never as they appear,

You took her on her word

Without ever seeing how her reasoning seemed absurd

Like a fool you believed everything you heard

The lines between truth and lies are now blurred,

All the time wasted in these personal tragedies

You will end up like a victim tossed in stormy seas

In the end no sugar for your carnal memories

Just divorces and lawyer’s fees,

I thought I was a man who stood for truth

All the while flirtations over gin and vermouth

Beware of a loose woman with a sweet tooth

Like an erotic encounter in a telephone booth,

Time will become your greatest enemy

Reminding you of failure instead of ecstasy

The time you wasted seeking to be free

Will come back like Hemlock to haunt thee,

Don’t bother to ask me how I know

These are all illusions that wound the soul

Fatal attractions leave blood in the snow

Little do we consider when we will pay the toll,

Oh the fading thrill of the flesh

Quickly becoming a cold icy mesh

What is now dead once seemed so fresh

All that was lost over no more than a fetish,

Years erode the studly young buck

All piss and vinegar not realizing she’s stuck

With all his women he’s running out of luck

Until an epiphany leaves him thunder struck,

Now simply a wise older man

With a dwindling audience of fans

Ostracized from his very own clan

This is the fate of former handsome Dan.
