Keep trying, you'll get there! They do take a bit of thinking about (and probably a mind like a corkscrew at times).
I don't get all of them either.

Thanx for the encouragement. I will.
Perhaps if I offered my own.
A phrase from TX state song.

How many letters? (Not that I'm likely to get it, I've never ever heard the Texas state song, despite a couple of work trips to Dallas / Fort Worth.)

"The stars at night are big and bright, deep in the heart of Texas" first lines.
Not part of a clue.

Sounds like a bit of Townes Van Zandt
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming “Wow! What a Ride!" - Hunter S Thompson - RIP

It sure does. Forgot about Townes. Sad.

Didn't listen to much his work. His Dad was a genius. "Lonesome Dove", etc.

Thanks!  I'll give them a listen. Texas seems to have a knack of churning out some fine song writers. Speaking of Mcmurtry, he has a gift for great lyrical prose in my humble opinion, a chip of the 'ol block if you will, definitely one of my favorite songwriters.

How am I supposed to start my day? It starts here then goes to Dilbert and the GoComics.
I'm Jonesing man.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

It's like the Twitter "question" ... will it or won't it? (something).
"Everyone" says it should be self-sustaing. But "we" know what they don't know, even though we can't explain it to them.
"Before entering on an understanding, I have meditated for a long time, and have foreseen what might happen. It is not genius which reveals to me suddenly, secretly, what I have to say or to do in a circumstance unexpected by other people; it is reflection, it is meditation." - Napoleon I
