what is the 'it' he doesn't need all of? (this is me, remember...not a poetic bone in my body, ceptin maybe my wishbone)
ok, that reminds me of a song in the early 70's about a man who lived a quiet life in england I think, and in my college english class we were studying it...the last line was he went home and put a bullet through his brain or his head. He was for all intents and purposes a successful person...from the outside. I think his first name was Edward. It was sort of about a life of quiet desperation.
So, now that I've given that totally awful description from my already failing memory....does that song ring a bell with you? It may have been by Simon and Garfunkel. (Once in an interview they said they thought about naming their first album "so young, yet so full of pain" j/k of course.)
