Did you know, the 5th verse of The Hollow Men was written about the SLS Final Edition?

And the reality
Between the motion
And the act
Falls the shadow

For thine is the racetrack

Between the conception
And the creation
Between the emotion

For thine is the racetrack

For thine is
Driving is
For thine is the

This is the way the SLS ends

This is the way the SLS ends
Not with a bang, but with a whimper.

Now that would be a final edition. The SLS AMG Insanity Edition. I'd buy it. With my imaginary money.
