Your Most Valuable Possession Songtext / Lyric

(6: 49 a.m, Friday, November 20th)

"Good morning, Mr. Ben.

It's about 6: 30 —

Winston-Salem, North Carolina.



Um... just laying here in the bed,

half awake, half asleep,

thinking about you.



I was wondering if you were looking

after your most valuable possession:

your mind.



I was thinking about John Glenn,

his space journey and all.



They said that when you're in space

you lose muscle mass and the body

mass and I wondered if there was any

end to it.






Or whether,

if you didn't exercise in space, how

long it would be before you were just

a head, or a mind — and have no body

or arms. You'd have them but you

couldn't use them.



I was wondering if if your body mass

would drop to a certain level, and then

it would stop right there. And keep

whatever you needed to use your mind

because it would still be working."



(30 seconds remaining)



"Anyway, I was just pondering that.

What do you think about... that?



I hope everything is going alright.

I may well wake up here in a little while

and forget what I was thinking about."
