A rollin' stone, all alone and lost...

Sorry, I haven't written for a while, guys...just have been really busy with the Unit 2 assignment that I need to finish this week as well before my next film job starts this Sunday.

Here's a song that I found that reminded me of a lot of the 'characters' that I saw during my observational research in Hamburg:



I'm a rolling stone, all alone and lost
For a life of sin, I have paid the cost.
When I pass by, all the people say
"Just another guy on the lost highway."

Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine
And a woman's lies make a life like mine.
Oh, the day we met, I went astray,
I started rollin' down that lost highway.

I was just a lad, nearly twenty-two,
Neither good nor bad, just a kid like you,
And now I'm lost, too late to pray,
Lord, I've paid the cost on the lost highway.

Now, boys, don't start your ramblin' round,
On this road of sin or you're sorrow bound.
Take my advice or you'll curse the day
You started rollin' down that lost highway

The feeling that is conveyed here will definitely be something that the main character of my story will have gone through as well...
