Desperate Fools by Eric Carmen C6add9 is just depressing the C on the B string and hitting all the other strings open. [Verse 1] I’ve been up too high I’ve been down too low I’ve been searchin’ for somethin’ with nowhere to go Thought I’d make it alone but I’m so far from home In a town full of desperate fools [Verse 2] Oh the sun beats down on the L.A. scene But you can’t feel the cold when the grass looks so green And the games that I’ve played were not worth what I paid In a town full of desperate fools [Bridge] I’ve been takin’ my life one day at a time Tryin’ to piece it all together but I know in my mind That I’m startin’ to be what they want me to be And I wonder sometimes what’s becoming of me [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] I’ve been takin’ my life one day at a time Tryin’ to piece it all together but I know in my mind That I’m startin’ to be what they want me to be And I wonder sometimes what’s becoming of me [Final Verse] ’Cause I’ve been up too high I’ve been down too low I’ve been searchin’ for somethin’ with nowhere to go And I suppose it’s been fun but I guess I’m just one In a town full of desperate fools   a town full of desperate fools

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque les hauts et les bas de la vie, illustrant un sentiment de quête désespérée dans un environnement peu accueillant. L'artiste se sent perdu, cherchant un sens et un chemin à suivre, tout en réalisant qu'il commence à s'adapter aux attentes des autres, ce qui le laisse perplexe sur son identité. Le décor, une ville où les illusions semblent fréquentes, souligne le vide de ces jeux et ambitions, laissant le protagoniste dans une réflexion amère sur son existence parmi tant d'autres dans la même situation.
