Today is one of those days
you realize how easy things you thought were hard can be
you understand how hard the simple things truly are
you can't tell your friends what's truly the matter
you _do_ tell mere acquaintances your deepest troubles
you discover people you thought were close to you are so very distant
and you find friends where you suspected strangers
A good day. A strange day. A terrible day.
A terrible day. A strange day. A good day.

A day, and this is most important, that you realize that whatever comes your way, you somehow _will_ handle.

A. Good. Day.

BEFORE I GET OLD
(Sullivan) 1990

I'm going to kiss the girls, make them cry
Live too fast, still not die - before I get old
I'm going to see you raised above this place
Watch the moments shine upon your face
Before I get old
I'll watch the sun set over every sea
From every city wall, every mountain peak
Before I get old
The Northern Lights and the Southern Cross
The harvests and the miles of dust
And the blowing wind across the world
So wrap this coat around yourself
And leave what's done behind
There's so much left for us to do
And yet there's so little time
I'm going to pull the fences to the ground
Watch the twisted towers come crumbling down
And start again
I want to be a hero and a villain and a father and a son
Take care of my body and abuse it still
Until everything goes numb
So let's make this dance and never fear
That there's any real reason why we're all here
Live real fast, still not die
Before I get old
