   'City sounds, burn your soul,
   Turn your head to cries,
   Of lonliness in the night.'
   Bert Jansch, early to mid 1960s

   " We're sharing a drink they call loneliness, but it's better than drinking alone." Piano Man. Billy Joel. That's sad when loneliness is the only friend you can count on.

   Time In A Bottle by Jim Croce
   He died in a plane crash in the 1970s--another time that the music died
   
   "Like the pine trees lining the winding road
   I've got a name
   I've got a name
   Like the singing bird and the croaking toad
   I've got a name
   I've got a name
   And I carry it with me like my daddy did
   But I'm living the dream that he kept hid
   Moving me down the highway
   Rolling me down the highway
   Moving ahead so life won't pass me by"

   "I was unconscious, half asleep
   The water is warm 'til you discover how deep
   I wasn't jumping, for me it was a fall
   It's a long way down to nothing at all"
   ~"Stuck in a Moment" by U2
   
   The song was written in memory of the suicide of INXS's lead singer. To me the point is: things can always be worse. Don't do something you will regret. Don't do something you won't have a chance to regret.
