Rent is about a community celebrating life, in the face of death and AIDS, at the turn of the century.

Measure your life in love.

but i know blue only blue lonely blue without you

In these dangerous times, where it seems the world is ripping apart at the seams, we can all learn how to survive from those who stare death squarely in the face every day, and we should reach out to each other and bond as a community, rather than hide from the terrors of life at the end of the millennium.

The heart may freeze, or it can burn. The pain will ease and I can learn. There is no future, there is no past. I live this moment as, my last.

There's no future. There's no past. I live each moment as my last.

Just don't let go or you may drown.
