This reminds me of a friend I lost a while back. He saw the world like this, he was frustrated and determined to fix it if he could. When I listen to this song it's like he's still there. Like he never left. I love this song more than I love a lot of things, no book or movie has lived up to these 6 minutes.

His lerics hit a lot of points and one of the most potent and important points to which his center of artistic talent and convictions is the points that he makes that most would for obvious reason take as an offense to such as his reference to churches and wars he is putting the real factor to be gleaned from such lerics as the points of the reasoning of the times when churches and countries had such surveillance on people that you couldn't even paint a painting that had the sun in it probably as it had always been the center of the universe as much as the earth is thought to be the center of yes the solar system and in much ways it is while that would be impossible were it not for the intensity of every part of the solar systems part in insuring what has taken place and countinuse to reverbate through our the universe as well as be contained in a healthy way so as to insure such things as the planets expanding with the universe away from the sun which cannot happen for several safeguards... one being in as much as certain planets form exlipsese pull the gravities together to each other and to the sun while when certain planers move lateraly to different points around the sun insures through that energy insures insures the energy that may and could possibly be utilised to cause the planets to move away from the sun but don't cause if that and this insires that new gravities are realised within points of this expanding universe to insure this process can be used in full ot in part as is needed to insure health to life .
