Introspective - Lyrics - Element 101
Mendelevium is a synthetic element with chemical symbol Md and atomic number 101. A metallic radioactive transuranic element in the actinide series, it is the first element that currently cannot be produced in macroscopic quantities through neutron bombardment of lighter elements. It is the antepenultimate actinide and the ninth transuranic element. It can only be produced in particle accelerators by bombarding lighter elements with charged particles. A total of sixteen mendelevium isotopes are known, the most stable being 258Md with a half-life of 51 days; nevertheless, the shorter-lived 256Md is most commonly used in chemistry because it can be produced on a larger scale.

To stand where I stand
To see just where I want to be when
I close my eyes, don't want to cry but fly
like an angel high above the things that try to hold me down
Still these thoughts are forming
I don't have much to give
Just pockets full of memories of days
when passing through these opportunities
that still knock at my soul
dreams that I thought I had forgot
now time tells
Then I'll know who it holds
now let go
Reach deep down into yourself
Find a place that's yours
When you need it, remember where it lives
