This old seashell made me think of the old Spooky Tooth song:
"It's all so easy, like the time when I first learned,
It's all the same, since the day the world first turned,
But I never tried to listen or wait
And now it's so clear but for me it's too late
And so I sit here trying not to cry
I only wanted peace but now I must die
The time's right ahead, can't you see
'Cause my life's running out, out on me
I've forgotten how it was, let me be
So hangman hang my shell on a tree"
