"All the people we used to know, they're an illusion to me now..."

"The only thing I knew how to do was to keep on keepin' on like a bird that flew..."

"And every one of them words rang true and glowed like burnin' coal. Pourin' off of every page, like it was written in my soul from me to you..."
