Realizing this is my last movie of 34 and feeling the unceasing pull of time and age and how it all passes by so quickly. Our existence is not even a blink of an eye in the grand cosmic scheme of the universe.

“Guy who dreams of trains.
Got the railroad in his head.
He’s gonna have these train dreams
Until he’s good and dead

He’s a logger in the woods
Yeah he laid down the track
He’s looking for his family
But they’re not coming back”

“Drive boy, dive boy
Dirty numb angel boy
In the doorway boy
She was a lipstick boy
She was a beautiful boy
And tears boy
And all in your inner space boy”
