This is such a beautiful song, and so many requests for it, so I just had to 
take it.
It took me almost 2 days to get this whole song down, and I'm pretty sure 
this is
almost perfect. Just listen to the song for all the timings, and have fun 
with this!

	This is a mantra. You can spend your life contemplating the past and future or you can live in the present. Trey has spent time in the present, touched this place of awareness, if only for those precious moments of a show when the band goes somewhere that it has never been and will never go again. In that moment not only does he feel it, we do too! If you want to get there again, throw on a live show recording or meditate to the mantra, start to compare yourself to a "bug", so small and insignificant in the universe and before you start thinking too hard about all the implications, don’t, "it doesn’t mater" (over time, you eliminate thinking about the bug, just like the song does, you don’t need it to get there). The rest of the song is tantamount to the “mental chatter” of someone who is locked into contemplating things that have nothing to do with now. I am happy if Phish reunites, I am happy if they don’t, I no longer need their "bug", I understand that it doesn’t mater. Steve

	"The distinction between past, present, and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion." Albert Einstein. Only the present exists, bug, it doesn't matter.
