I don't know why, but today, of all days, these lyrics seem very appropriate. I generally don't post song lyrics as a journal entry, but today I need to. Looking at the state of the world, the way Bush wants to invade Iraq, our loss of Constitutional freedoms - it all just makes me think of parts of this song.

"... And they told me the news.
I tried all night not to break down and cry,
As the tears rolled down my face.
I felt so cold and empty,
Like a lost soul out of place.
And the mirror, mirror on the wall,
Sees my smile it fades again.
... And it just makes me wonder,
Why so many lose, so few win.
... Sometimes I wish to God I didn't know now,
The things I didn't know then.
And give me something to believe in."
