Story behind the song
How life can go horribly wrong - for to realise much, much later that it was one of the best thing to ever happen to you.....
Lyrics
Destiny’s Chile
© Mc Glynn / Casey 2007
I’ve been picking up the pieces
Of my life
For so long now.
It feels like forever.
It feels like forever.
My life it fell to pieces
One day back in 1994.
I didn’t see it comin.’
I’d never felt that good before.
I believed I was
In the Hands of The Lord.
It was my last throw of the dice.
I was no longer “economically viable”
YOU see?
Singing was all I could
“Maybe” earn at,
You see?
But then they locked me away.
And threw away my key.
Maybe it was My Destiny…?
Maybe it was part of My Destiny?
You see?
To deconstruct myself…
And then one day,
Reconstruct myself.
Fitter.
Better.
Stronger.
Maybe a little wiser.
And come back and do it all again.
And try to help some people
Like I was trying to do.
Before.
I was only trying to help
Myself and my friends.
Maybe it wasn’t my fault at all?
But maybe it was
My
Destiny…?
Maybe…
It was My Destiny?
Maybe…
I’m a Destiny’s Chile?
Had to lose myself to find myself.
Lose everything.
Everyone.
Including my reputation.
Everyone thinks
I’m gone.
Long down the road.
But…
I’m “Still” here you know.
Singin’ my blues
Better than ever.
I’M STILL HERE YOU KNOW!
I was gone.
But not Forgotten.
It was part of My Destiny.
You See?
To deconstruct myself.
And reconstruct myself
Over time.
And Suffering
So much Suffering.
I wouldn’t wish it
On my worst enemy.
But it made me.
What
I am
Today.
Maybe…
It was My Destiny….?
I’m a Destiny’s Chile.
