Rented Rooms

When I was young
I never thought
I'd live in rented rooms

I saw myself
The man of a house
With a wife and a kid or two

But here I am
Living with strangers
Alone in rented rooms

And those four walls
Get to me
They remind me of all the things
That I never wanted to be

I lost myself
And everything else
There in those rented rooms

Behind closed doors
I raved at the world
And squandered my dreams and youth

Then I gave up
On living and love
And shaking those rented rooms

But those four walls
Still get to me
They remind me of all the things
That I never wanted to be
