Narrative

A narrative or story is any report of connected events, actual or imaginary, presented in a sequence of written or spoken words, or still or moving images.

Narrative can be organized in a number of thematic and/or formal categories: non-fiction (e.g., definitively including creative non-fiction, biography, journalism, transcript poetry, and historiography); fictionalization of historical events (e.g., anecdote, myth, legend, and historical fiction); and fiction proper (e.g., literature in prose and sometimes poetry, such as short stories, novels, and narrative poems and songs, as well as imaginary narratives as portrayed in other textual forms, games, or live or recorded performances). Narrative is found in all forms of human creativity, art, and entertainment, including speech, literature, theatre, music and song, comics, journalism, film, television and video, radio, gameplay, unstructured recreation, and performance in general, as well as some painting, sculpture, drawing, photography, and other visual arts (though several modern art movements refuse the narrative in favor of the abstract and conceptual), as long as a sequence of events is presented. The word derives from the Latin verb narrare, "to tell", which is derived from the adjective gnarus, "knowing" or "skilled".

You were only giving me the time of day
And it was hard for me to keep that smile straight
In the corner of the bar around the way from me
But I knew what would become of us that night
Everybody else was judging through the corners of their eyes
And I could hardly tell you any single truth
Or move
And hallelujah
Me and all my friends
Waiting for the sun
To make us new again
Or finally burn up
And bring us to our end
We are not all quite as blessed as we may seem
I've got these looks but I can't keep my body clean
But I know that I can use my tongue to speak and sing
Hallelujah
Me and all my friends
Waiting for the sun
To bring us to our end
Or finally burn up
And make us free again
And hallelujah
I am free again
And praise the good old lord
But do not wait for him
'Cause he won't save your soul
Or clean it of it's sins
So let's soak in them
Hallelujah
Me and all my friends
Waiting for the sun
To make us new again
Or finally burn up
And bring us to our end
