These Days — текст песни (Bon Jovi)

I was walking around, just a face in the crowd,
trying to keep myself out of the rain
Saw a vagabond king wear styrofoam crown,
wondered if I might end up the same
There`s a man out on the corner, singing old songs about change
Everybody got their cross to bare, these days

She came looking for some shelter with a suitcase full of dreams
To a motel room on the boulevard,
guess she`s trying to be James Dean
She`s seen all the disciples an all the `wanna be`s`
No one wants to be themselves these days
Still there`s nothing to hold on to but these days

These days - the stars seem out of reach
These days - there ain`t a ladder on the streets
These days - are fast, love don`t last in this graceless age
There ain`t nobody left but us these days

Jimmy shoes busted both his legs, trying to learn to fly
From a second story window, he just jumped and closed his eyes
His momma said he was crazy - he said momma I`ve got to try
Don`t you know that all my heroes died
And I guess I`d rather die than fade away

These days - the stars seem out of reach
But these days - there ain`t a ladder on the streets
These days are fast, nothing last-in this graceless age
Even innocence has caught the morning train
And there ain`t nobody left but us these days

I know Rome`s still burning
Though the times have changed
This world keeps tourning round and round and round and round,
these days

These days - the stars seem out of reach
But these days - there ain`t a ladder on the streets
These days are fast, nothing lasts-in this graceless age
Even innocence has caught the morning train
And there ain`t nobody left but us these days

These days - the stars seem out of reach
These days - there ain`t a ladder on the streets
These days are fast, nothing lasts
There ain`t no time to waste
There ain`t nobody left to take the blame
There ain`t nobodoy left but us these days
