O&A Board Veteran Registered: Feb. 01	A great obscure song. If you haven't heard it, pick up the live version on The Who Live: The Blues to the Bush After the Fire Roger Daltry (Pete Townshend) After the fire the fire still burns, the heart grows older but never ever learns. The memories smoulder and the soul always yearns, after the fire the fire still burns. I heard a voice asking what happens after the fire and then the sound of a breaking window and the scream of a tire and then the sound of distant gun and the cry of a hungry child. The night is hot but nothing's gonna stop this ga---ng going wild. After the fire the fire still burns, the heart grows older but never ever learns. The memories smoulder and the soul always yearns, after the fire the fire still burns. I saw Matt Dillon in black and white there ain't no colour in memories. He rode his brother's Harley acrosss the TV while I was laughing at Dom deLuise. Now I'm cycling all my video tapes, I'm crying and I'm joking. I've gotta stop drinking, I've gotta stop thinking, I've gotta stop smoking. After the fire the fire still burns, the heart grows older but never ever learns. The memories smoulder and the soul always yearns, after the fire the fire still burns, raging through the pain, blackening the promises, the tears and the rain. The fire will burn 'til the wind begins to turn and it all begins again. After the fire the fire still burns, the heart grows older but never ever learns. The memories smoulder and the soul always yearns, after the fire the fire still burns, the fire still burns, After the fire the fire still burns, the heart grows older but never ever learns. The memories smoulder and the soul always yearns, after the fire the fire still burns. I believe in the Faith... that can save me. I believe in the hope and I pray... That someday it may raise me... above these badlands

Type O Negative>>Blood & Fire I always thought we'd be together And that our love could not be better Well with no warning you were gone I still don't know what went wrong You don't know what I've been through Just want to put my love in you No more nights of blood & fire All those special memories Now I bleed for you - burn for me Perhaps I was just dreaming When I think these things had real meaning You don't know what I've been through Just want to put my love in you Love eternal Lust infernal Bleeding, burning Needing, yearning I see your face in every flame With no answers I have only myself to blame Of all the women I have know - they're not you I'd rather be alone No more nights of blood & fire

O&A Board Regular Registered: Aug. 00	I wish I had posted this song before The memories smoulder and the soul always yearns. AIM: SmarterChild Write To Me Here I think it all started with the Declaration of Independence -- the idea that we had the inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That pursuit is what took America from the revolution to the computer age in 200 years. But the progress has come at a price. The obvious being the people that were exploited to make it possible; the not so obvious being us, the first group of people that were given no obvious frontiers to conquer. We hear stories that about the good old days that don't seem to apply anymore. It's a generation gap that leaves us without role models. But the bright side is that without role models, there are no roles. Maybe that's what the 60s were all about -- getting rid of the roles. But what do we replace them with? Without any guidance, what do we replace them with? Without any guidance, the choices become overwhelming. Sometimes it just makes everything feel hopeless. So we destroy our bodies in the search of an ideal. Try to salvage relationships that don't work. We feel we must do something, instead of doing something that we feel. It is the prison of self-imposed momentum, and the sad part is that we get used to it. It reminds me of a song I heard the other day. It's called "The Going Nowhere Fast." But the people I have met here have shown me another side of Nowhere. They've pointed out the beautiful irony that stagnation makes it easy to stop and smell the roses, if we just let it. What would we be if we had nothing to rebel against? Well we could finally be ourselves, the first group of people who stopped looking for the answers long enough to appreciate the questions. And all we have to do is to make our own Declaration of Independence. We can embrace the right to life and liberty by simply realizing that happiness exists -- not to pursue, but to accept. After that the only challenge would be to make sure with the rest of our lives that we weren't just another fad. I don't know, it's an idea. What do you think?
