"And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a relative way but your older
Shorter of breath, and one day closer to death"

BulletBob, I think this is one of the most thought provoking pieces I have heard in a long time.

In random order...
Dennis Leary: "I'm an asshole" (also track title)
Steve Earl/Copperhead road:
"Now Daddy ran the whiskey in a big block Dodge
Bought it at an auction at the Mason's Lodge
Johnson County Sheriff painted on the side
Just shot a coat of primer then he looked inside
Well him and my uncle tore that engine down
I still remember that rumblin' sound"
Mental as anything/ Nips are getting bigger....
"Started out, just drinkin' beer
I didn't know how or why
Or what I was doin' there
Just a couple more
Made me feel a little better"...."Sometimes I wonder
What all these chemicals
Are doin' to my brain
Doesn't worry me enough
To stop me from doin' it agai-ai-ain
Wipin' out brain cells
By the millions but I don't care "
More than a line, but down-load them and you will understand!
