by faceless men, well fuckers...he still stands

oh blue eyes, I've seen it
if just once i could feel love
oh stare back at me, yeah..

The lyrics tagged onto the end of Black are great -- but everyone thinks they're great. So I'll have to go with my log-in name:
"All five horizons revolved around her soul...as the earth to the sun"
There's too many good ones though, therefore I despise posts like this -- it's too frustrating!!!"Speaking as a child of the nineties..."

It's been about three days now
Since I've been aground
No longer overwhelmed and it seems so simple now
It's funny when things change so much

Rise. You can't be neutral on a moving train
Down
It might be your guile. It could be your mind.
It might be the way you take your time.
Oh, you, you, you
