Dark Side of the Moon: Pink Floyd

 * |||||| **Time**

 Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day  You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way.  Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town  Waiting for someone or something to show you the way.

 Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain.  You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today.  And then one day you find ten years have got behind you.  No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.

 So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking  Racing around to come up behind you again.  The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older,  Shorter of breath and one day closer to death.

 Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time.  Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines <span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif,sans-serif; font-size: x-small; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;"> Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way <span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif,sans-serif; font-size: x-small; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;"> The time is gone, the song is over, <span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif,sans-serif; font-size: x-small; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;"> Thought I'd something more to say. ||

 * Similar to other songs as well. Don't let money, work etc run your life
 * Ending? How does it relate? People fighting over money?
 * Having too much money will change you
 * Brain Damage
 * Change from one lunatic somewhere else to many in his hall to in his head
 * In the end he just doesn't care
 * Getting closer and closer to being crazy
 * People are trying to fix him but it just makes him more crazy
 * Album
 * Flowed really well
 * Album-not songs. Commonality between all albums
 * Eclipse is a symbolic ending: something is in front of the light. Something is in the way.
 * Album about the things in life that lead to insanity.
 * Founding member of the band, Syd Barrett, went slightly mad and had to leave the band. Many say this album is about him.
