Hmm...deep words....morbid on the goth/emo side of things kinda...very Celt. ...needs the oilieen pipe or whatever the fuck its called. ..haunting... shiver.....nice.
The drums of WAR are beating deeply.....I'd much prefer the fiddle. ..or peace pipe. ...but tis not my call.

The lyrics fit the current global situation as well:
"And so once again
My dear Johnny my dear friend
And so once again you are fightin' us all
And when I ask you why
You raise your sticks and cry, and I fall
Oh, my friend
How did you come
To trade the fiddle for the drum
You say I have turned
Like the enemies you've earned
But I can remember
All the good things you are
And so I ask you please
Can I help you find the peace and the star
Oh, my friend
What time is this
To trade the handshake for the fist
And so once again
Oh, America my friend
And so once again
You are fighting us all
And when we ask you why
You raise your sticks and cry and we fall
Oh, my friend
How did you come
To trade the fiddle for the drum
You say we have turned
Like the enemies you've earned
But we can remember
All the good things you are
And so we ask you please
Can we help you find the peace and the star
Oh my friend
We have all come
To fear the beating of your drum"

It's actually a Joni Mitchell song, she wrote it during the Vietnam war. Then Maynard covered it with A Perfect Circle during the Iraq war.
