Pink Floyd - High Hopes
Lyrics:
Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
In a world of magnets and miracles
Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
The ringing of the division bell had begun
Along the long road and on down to the causeway
Do they still LIVE there by the cut
There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps
Running before time took our dreams away
Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
To a life consumed by slow decay
The grass was greener
The light was brighter
With friends surrounded
The nights of wonder
Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Dragged by the force of some inner tide
At a higher altitude with flag unfurled
We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed up world
****
Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
Though down this road we've been so many times
The grass was greener
The light was brighter
The taste was sweeter
The nights of wonder
With friends surrounded
The dawn mist glowing
The water flowing
The endless river
Forever and ever

Could aptly describe the life of Joe Paterno, a man who had high hopes for his community but only to be undone the division bell of deceit. May his soul rest in peace

My friend asked me what my favorite type of music was, I said I prefer classic rock over most of today's 'music.' He laughed dismissively, I burst out laughing. I almost felt sorry for him! haha

@Frazzledotd True. I'm just saying, because no one wants to hear stories from other people haha.
Ugh, I need to go get this song for the iPod. It's good for the soul..

@LilKama1 A lot of other people feel the same way about different songs, I think we care.. That's the reason why the songs strike a nerve with us in the first place (:
