I always was a rebel... but on the other hand, I wanted to be loved and accepted by all facets of society and not be this loud-mouthed lunatic, poet, musician. But I cannot be what I'm not.

BUILT TO LAST- Robert Hunter and Jerry Garcia
There are times when you can beckon
There are times when you must call
You can shake a lot of wrecking
But you can't take it all
There are times when I can help you out
And times when you must fall
There are times when you must live in doubt
And I can't help at all
Three blue stars set on the hill
Say no more now just be still
All these trials soon be past
Show me something built to last
Wind held by the collar
Yes a cloud held by the breeze
You can walk on coals of fire
But sometimes you must freeze
There are times when you offend me
And I do the same to you
If we can't or won't forget it
I guess we could be through
Two blue stars set on the hill
Call it back you never will
If the sky now sinking fast
Show me something built to last
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsty.com/grateful-dead-built-to-last-lyrics.html ]
Built to last till time itself falls tumbling from the wall
Built to last till sunshine fails and darkness moves on all
Built to last while years roll past like cloudscapes in the sky
Show me something built to last or someone built to try
You might get hit upon
There are times when you must give
There are times when you can barely part
With what you need to live
Don't save your breath to waste your face
When you have done your best
Tell them all forget it
Fate will decide the rest
All the stars are gone but one
Morning breaks here comes the sun
Through the sky now sinking fast
Show me something built to last
Three blue stars rise on the hill
Say no more now just be still
All these trials soon be past
Show me something built to last
Two blue stars set on the hill
Say no more now just still
In the night now in the past
Show me something built to last
All the stars are gone but one
Morning breaks here comes the sun
Through the sky now sinking fast
Show me something built to last
