It was so clear to me that it was almost invisible.
Neko Case, Middle Cyclone And there are so many by John Prine: There's a hole in Daddy's arm where all the money goes. Sam Stone I feel about as welcome as a Wal-Mart superstore. Talking a Walk Grief is a word to describe the absence of feeling Now I know, Cowboy Junkies And of course, the great Leonard Cohen (I agree with Anthem quote above) from Light as the Breeze And she says, drink deeply, pilgrim But don't forget there's still a woman Beneath this Resplendent chemise. And Joni Mitchell Mama's nylons underneath my cowgirl jeans Song for Sharon As snow gathers like bolts of lace Waltzing on a ballroom girl Hejira |

We'll Make Great Pets! Porno for Pyros
Children are innocent Teenagers are f*cked up in the head Adults are even more f*cked up And elderlies are like children Will there be another race To come along and take over for us? Maybe martians could do Better than we've done We'll make great pets! |

So many, but this one strikes me as the kids in my life get older (though I suspect it is about the end of a romantic relationship):
I wish that I could be a journey's end But you are only passing through, It's not for me to try to steer your way I wish you well in all you do Just say you'll watch how you go Be gracious with your light And may the years be kind now Just say you'll mind how you roam The things that we have shared Will soon be left behind now I hope you know that you're a graceful soul You fill the room with hope and light It's only right that you should go your way 'Cause nothing ever lasts that long -- Keane, Watch How You Go and You're packing a suitcase for a place none of us has seen A place that has to be believed to be seen. -- U2, Walk On |

So good but I like “no one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun,” a bit more. |

Two words!
Rock, chalk, shot a jayhawk Never been in jail 'cause I never get caught I got smarts, dark, dangerous dog ODB got it right from the start You got one and you changed from crazy to calm I've been awake for days in the dusk and the dawn And you're loving me whether you want to or not But I want you for sure, I am loving you more I see art You see class You think (you think) You ask (you ask) You say darling am I a chore? I said I know you love me, I am loving you more Giants, Bear Hands |

Ring the bells that still can ring
