I must be getting old

Track 5 of this years Rpm challenge 2023 covering the concept of age and the effect on poor old Reg…
Somedays are sent to test us to figure it out
Somedays are lonely
Somedays I’m switched on
Somedays I don’t understand what the hells going on
I get confused
I’ve lost my keys
I forget your name
I’m sure I’m forgetting me
I got no memory of yesterday

Now I know there’s no parole
I must be getting old
I must be getting old That’s what I’ve been told

Break
Life passes like its a dream
Sometimes I’m even back home
Voices trigger memories of people long ago
Their faces look so old
I know there’s no parole I must be getting old cause that’s what I Benn told

Sat in the dayroom
Half a sleep
Trying to have a conversation and forgetting how to speak
I got lost I don’t think I’ll ever be found

I know there’s no parole
I must be getting old
I must be getting old That’s what I’ve been told

Break

Yesterday my son came to see me
He appeared looking like his father used to do
I got confused and thought he was my brother
I know there’s no parol
I must be getting old
I must be old that’s what I’m told
