A timeless topic…because there are so many and, if you’re like me, his are ever-revolving and/or evolving in my head, including what he covers.  For the last few weeks, it’s an “oldie”...

“Fact is only what you believe and fact and fiction work as a team”.

So, what lyric is in your mind, right now?

but everybody thinks that everybody knows
about everybody else but nobody knows
anything about themselves,
because they’re all worried about everybody else

its really hard to choose but

god wears camouflage, cries at night and drives a dodge
Pick up the beat and stop hogging the feast
That’s no way to treat an enemy

Really hard to choose…

I was just listening to “If I Could” so I’ll choose something from that song…

Down the middle drops one more grain of sand
They say that new life makes losing life easier to understand
Words are kind they helped ease the mind, I miss my old friend
And though you gotta go we’ll keep a piece of your soul
One goes out
One comes in

Hard to choose between Good People, Go On, If I Had…

But I chose Crying Shame, which I think is considering the meaning similar to Sleep Through The Static.

By now it’s beginning to show
A number of people are numbers that ain’t coming home
I could close my eyes it’s still there
Close my mind be alone
I could close my heart and not care
But gravity has got a hold on us all

It’s a terrific price to pay
But in the true sense of the word
Are we using what we’ve learned?
In the true sense of the word
Are we losing what we were?

I love those.

Whatever you do
Do it good

It’s not what you look like when you’re doing what your doing
It’s what your doing when you’re doing
What it looks like your doing

Totally understand…If I had to commit to just one, or even a few, I couldn’t do it either!  Just throw em’ out as they come to mind!

ok…. altho im still singin “fall line” and constantly driftin back to “if i had eyes!!:)”...... just remembered lines from “enemy”..... think they r plain beautiful”......:

I put hatred in a box then I locked it
The strongest one I made
I buried it all, grew a tree without thorns
And sat beneath the shade

You might think I’m your enemy
But that don’t make you mine
And all I have now is empathy
I wish that you’d stop trying
Oh please stop lying
Please stop la la la la la la
La la la la la…
La la la la la…

Weird, or not so weird, but I was just thinking about that one this morning!

Now it’s… the truth is walking straight into a road block ending, left here bending….

Thinking about Ex US-president Bush… Good People

Sitting around feeling far away
So far away but I can feel the debris, can you feel it?
You interrupt me from a friendly conversation
To tell me how great it’s all going to be
You might notice some hesitation
Because it’s important to you, it’s not important to me
But way down by the edge of your reason
It’s beginning to show and all I really want to know is…

Where’d all the good people go?

Good Luck Barack Obama !!!
