**************************************************

"Rows of houses all bearing down on me
I can feel their blue hands touching me
All these things into position
All these things we'll one day swallow whole
And fade out again and fade out

This machine will, will not communicate
These thoughts and the strain I am under
Be a world child, form a circle
Before we all go under
And fade out again and fade out again

Cracked eggs, dead birds

Scream as they fight for life......♫
I can feel death, can see its beady eyes
All these things into position
All these things we'll one day swallow whole
And fade out again and fade out again

Immerse your soul in love
Immerse your soul in love"

Radiohead - Street Spirit (Fade Out)

***************************************************
Sed Fugit Irreparabile Tempus

"Life is fragile ..Every moment is precious"
I feel a growing sense of urgency about my life........

« Meantime, irretrievable time flees.»

===================================

"La vie est fragile ... Chaque instant est précieux"
Je ressens un sentiment d'urgence croissant au sujet de ma vie ......

« Pendant ce temps, le temps s'échappe, irremplaçable »
