GEN X: What music have you been listening to ?!

[Vap841]

"... I'm not brittle

If I get defensive
Don't say I'm oversensitive
Maybe I have a tendency to snap on people telling me
"You fit inside this box we built, we know you better than yourself"

They're lying, they're lying, they're lying !!!... "​

Sometimes when people in this world start annoying me by trying to stick me inside of those boxes I just don’t have the energy to deal with it…

“When this old world starts getting me down and people are just too much for me to face, I climb way up to the top of the stairs and all my cares just drift right into space. On the roof it's peaceful as can be, and there the world below can't bother me!!”

Molly Hatchet - Dreams I'll Never See ! (1978)

... Just one more mornin'
I had to wake up with the blues
Pulled myself outta bed, yeah
Put on my walkin' shoes
Climb up on a hilltop, baby
To see what I could see, yeah
The whole world was fallin' down, baby
Right down in front of me

'Cause I'm hung up on dreams
I'm never gonna see, yeah
Lord help me, babe
Dreams get the best of me, yeah

Pull myself together
Gonna put on a new face, yeah
Climb down from the hilltop, baby
Lord, get back in the race

To remember the love we had ... "

[Vap841]

Always surrounded by constant fears of imminent disasters…food shortages, nuclear war, Great Depression 2.0., hyper inflation, pending crash of markets and loss of life savings… Am I just imagining this crazy world? I wonder if I could stop it all, I wonder if I could freeze it all in time?

“If I close my eyes forever, will it all remain unchanged? If I close my eyes forever, will it all remain the same?”
