I'll echo that (probably easy for me to say since I'm only 35  :biggrin:).  My 70-yr-old mother and I traveled across Israel and Jordan for 14-days... she certainly didn't act or feel old (from what I could see).  It's just a number, a way to pass time.

Speaking of Time, I understand those lyrics much better now than I did 10-years ago.  I think that starting gun misfired in my case.

But that's just it.   Debra is right, but it's all perspective.    I'm 48, and I feel like I'm 27.  Seriously.  But the fact that I am not 27l, or even 37, gets thrown in my face every single day when I watch my daughter growing as if in a time-lapse photo montage. 

The whole point is, enjoy it all in the moment, because it goes faster than you can imagine.

I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces
