Dear,
p1p16123.102202,pp9r
How are things in your little world, I hope they're going well and you are too.
p1p16123.102202,pp9r
Do you still see the same old crowd, the ones who used to meet every Friday.
p1p16123.102202,pp9r
I'm really sorry that I can't be there but work comes first, I'm sure you'll understand.
p1p16123.102202,pp9r
Things are really taking off for me business is thriving and I'm showing a profit and.
p1p16123.102202,pp9r
And in any case it wouldn't be the same, 'cause we've all grown up and we've got our lives
p1p16123.102202,pp9r
and the values that we had once upon a time, seem stupid now 'cause the rent must be paid
p1p16123.102202,pp9r
and some bonds severed and others made.
p1p16123.102202,pp9r

p1p16123.102202,pp9r
Now I don't want you to get me wrong, ideals are fine when you are young and I must admit
p1p16123.102202,pp9r
we had a laugh, but that's all it was and ever will be, 'cause the Burning Sky keeps
p1p16123.102202,pp9r
burning bright. And as long as it does [and it always will], there's no time for dreams
p1p16123.102202,pp9r
when commerce calls. And the taxman's shouting 'cause he wants his dough and the wheels of
p1p16123.102202,pp9r
finance won't begin to slow.
p1p16123.102202,pp9r

p1p16123.102202,pp9r
And it's only us realists who are gonna come through 'cause there's only one power higher
p1p16123.102202,pp9r
than that of truth and that's the Burning Sky.
p1p16123.102202,pp9r

p1p16123.102202,pp9r
Oh and by the way I must tell you, before I sign off, that I've got a meeting next week,
p1p16123.102202,pp9r
with the head of a big corporate I can't disclose who but I'm sure you'll know it and.
p1p16123.102202,pp9r
And the Burning Sky - keeps burning bright. And it won't turn off til it's had enough,
p1p16123.102202,pp9r
it's the greedy bastard who won't give up, and you're just a dreamer if you don't realize,
p1p16123.102202,pp9r
and the sooner you do will be the better for you, then we'll all be happy and we'll all be
p1p16123.102202,pp9r
wise and all bow down to the Burning Sky.
p1p16123.102202,pp9r

p1p16123.102202,pp9r
Then we'll all be happy and we'll all be wise and together we will live beneath the
p1p16123.102202,pp9r
Burning Sky.
