And we've one more fact to state,
that we think it's really great, to be alive! to be alive... --Kermit the Frog

Let It Burn I'm thinking it through I'm thinking of you Try to remind myself to move The nightmare unfolds Should have never let her go Alone in this empty room Let it burn I'm thinking of you I'm thinking it through I try to remind myself to move I wait by the phone You're never coming home Let it burn (let it burn), let it bleed (let it bleed) Let it go that Sunday morning I don't understand Just give her one more chance May angels keep her safe tonight Cause I'm doing all I can Let it burn It was a cold winter's day And the streets were wet with rain Another drink, one for the ride He turned the key and started to drive I wish I never let her go I wish I could just push rewind So young and so alive So young and so alive Let it burn (let it burn), let it bleed (let it bleed) Let it go that Sunday morning I don't understand Just give her one more chance May angels keep her safe tonight Cause I'm doing all I can Let it burn Let it burn (let it burn), let it bleed (let it bleed) But this time I pierced my heart beneath my skin Let it burn (let it burn), let it bleed (let it bleed) What a price, life torn apart from one man's sin I don't understand Just give us one more chance I'll see you in my dreams tonight Cause I'm doing all I can Let it burn

If you choose not to decide you still have made a choice. (Rush)

Nice! That is the kind of concise statement that I love Rush (Peart) for.

That has always been one of my favorite lines in a song, from my favorite Rush song.

This is a metal song, but one would not know it just by listening, as it is a ballad, an amazing one. Oh, and you have to hear it sung, the vocals are incredible, so play the video at the bottom and enjoy.
Dreamer/Deceiver by Judas Priest Standing by my window, breathing summer breeze Saw a figure floating, 'neath the willow tree Asked us if we were happy, we said we didn't know Took us by the hands and up we go We followed the dreamer through the purple hazy clouds He could control our sense of time We thought we were lost but no matter how we tried Everyone was in peace of mind We felt the sensations drift inside our frames Finding complete contentment there And all the tensions that hurt us in the past Just seemed to vanish in thin air He said in the cosmos is a single sonic sound That is vibrating constantly And if we could grip and hold on to the note We would see our minds were free...oh they're free We are lost above Floating way up high If you think you can find a way You can surely try
