Random thoughts Stray memories

Remember when you were young
You shone like the Sun
Shine on, you crazy diamond!
Now there's a look in your eyes
Like black holes in the sky
Shine on, you crazy diamond!
You were caught on the crossfire
Of childhood and stardom
Blown on the steel breeze
Come on, you target for faraway laughter
Come on, you stranger, you legend, you martyr
And shine!

You reached for the secret too soon
You cried for the Moon.
Shine on, you crazy diamond!
Threatened by shadows at night
And exposed in the light
Shine on, you crazy diamond!
Well you wore out your welcome
With random precision
Rode on the steel breeze
Come on, you raver, you seer of visions
Come on, you painter, you piper, you prisoner
And shine!
- Pink Floyd's song Shine on You Crazy Diamond (Part 1)

This song's for ttj. :) My favourite Pink Floyd song is quite an odd one called Run Like Hell. I like the long opening guitar riffs somehow.
