Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.
And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.

I hope that's true too!!
Also, an excerpt from an article about Grammy winners:
"In the end, though, it was Irish quartet U2 who logged the largest metal payload at the close of the 3 1/2-hour broadcast, amassing five of five potential Grammys, including the coveted album of the year trophy for How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb.
U2 also snared rock album of the year, song of the year, best rock performance by a duo or group with vocal for "Sometimes You Can't Make it on Your Own," and best rock song for "City of Blinding Lights."
I was so excited, especially since going into it they were not expected to win more than a couple awards.

I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again
