What is the deal

Track 1 of this years Rpm challenge 2023 covering the concept of age and the effect on poor old Reg…

My heart beat feels like a strangers
It drums to a different kinda beat
The image in this head of mine hangs in defeat
It don’t feel real
What I see just can’t be real

Who is this in the mirror
Where the hell have I been
Who is this figure in front of me
It’s so old it can’t be real
It’s so old it can’t be real

Life carries on and as it ticks like a bomb
It’s slowly going explode on me
Then I’m gone gone gone

What have I left behind me
Who am I was it all real
Was it all an illusion what was the deal
Oh what was the deal
Oh what was the deal

We struggle as we get on with our life
Suddenly all the years disappeared
You look over your shoulder
to realise the end has started to appear

Now Where did all those years go
You raised your children and let them go
It scares to your soul
To see how young you feel
but really how old you’ve become

You look in the mirror
Now where the hell have I been
Who is this figures its not you
Where is that young man
Where is that young you

Was it all an illusion everybody knows how life doesn’t feel real
Could somebody out there tell me
what is the deal
What the hell is the deal
what is the deal
