[hometext] => A brief burst of inspiration brought about by sudden depression.
[bodytext] => It's those same three chords struck over and over; A brief glance or a whisper, "Get me out of this place" Yeah there's crying and pain and that coldly-wrought reminder: These are the best years of our lives; it's all downhill from here. It's kept in and left out in the same simple sentence, A scream and a sob and sad smile all in one. And through all of the gray there's that brief technicolor: It's as good as it gets; everything's downhill from here. It's the rain and the sunshine in one foggy morning, The crash of the waves and the tide pulling beneath. Through the flicker of beauty an ugly reminder: Hold onto your laughter; it's all downhill from here. It's coming and going, but never arriving, Forward and back and all directions between. But the one way not traveled's the one we should be using, Because, after all, it's just downhill from here.
