SEE ALSO: Most of Big Country's first album, The Crossing, including the track that still to this day gets a lot of airplay as a Rock Anthem.

So take that look out of here, it doesn't fit you
Because it's happened doesn't mean you've been discarded
Pull up your head off the floor, come up screaming
Cry out for everything you ever might've wanted
I thought that pain and truth were things that really mattered
But you can't stay here with every single hope you had shattered

>Hmm. I'm gonna try and express my tastes without sounding braggy and
>holier than thou:

As an aside, you, uh, didn't really accomplish this. :)

>It's like, moral ambiguity? Questionable protagonists?
>Broken, wasted shells of human beings? Sign me up!

See, the thing to me has long been that real life is already way, way too well-equipped with all'a that crap, so what do I want to go putting made-up hopeless frailty on my Rice Krispies for? But, you know, different floats for different boats.
